We offer the # 13342 from Curt for your 2006 Mercedes ML350.
Since you'll be towing with the hitch, you'll also need a trailer wiring harness like # C59496, a ball mount like # 2753 and either a 1-7/8 inch ball # 19260 or a 2 inch ball # 63845. The coupler on your PWC trailer will state which size is needed.
I've linked you to installation videos for the hitch and wiring which I hope you find helpful. The installation instructions are also linked. The video for the wiring install shows the harness being installed on a newer M Class, but the video will give you a good idea of how the installation is done.
