The transmission and the brakes figure as much into towing capabilities as engine, torque, and horsepower.
I would also take care about maxing out your towing capacity if you tow long distances or tow a lot. Maxing out the towing capacity for 10-20% of your annual driving is one thing, but if a lot of driving is pulling the boat, I'd probably only want to tow 50-70% of the rated capacity.
