I’d appreciate any advice and recommendations For items needed to purchase and also place to have installed? I also sent reply to your website with my ZIP Code 07827 earlier Thank you.

Hey Lori, I'm not seeing anywhere about not condoning towing. In any case, for your 800 lb trailer you can use the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e25AR, which has a max weight capacity of 3,500 lbs and a max tongue weight of 525 lbs.
For a kayak carrier, I recommend going with the Yakima Kayak Trailer for 2 Kayaks and 2 Bikes # Y34TR which is capable of carrying up top two kayaks weighing up to 80 lbs per boat.
Finally, for a 2 bike rack I recommend checking out the Yakima StageTwo Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # Y47VR which can carry up to two bikes weighing 70 lbs each.
