I definitely have a recommendation for you to add both a trailer hitch receiver and wiring for your 2021 Tesla Model Y so you can haul your Wave Runner. The hitch I recommend is from Draw-Tite and the wiring harness from Tekonsha, with the correct fits for your '21 Model Y being the following:

- Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT58MR

- ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness # 119250KIT

I really like the Draw-Tite due to its superior strength, as it has a 3,500 lb towing capacity and the most tongue weight capacity at 525 lbs, as well as Draw-Tite's strong reputation for quality. Then for the wiring harness, the ZCI is the best because it is a completely unique option that does not require any splicing whatsoever; ZCI stands for zero-contact interface, and it works by clamping onto your wiring. We have also found that the manufacturer of these harnesses, Tekonsha, makes the most reliable trailer wiring harnesses in the industry.
