They're great for around town and trips, but "Economical vehicles"
don't pull [or stop] boats very well. That is, any boat of size.

I wouldn't think of hitching my 18 ft. Chris Craft behind my wife's
Honda CRV.

Thank you :-)

Stopping is really important. There's just nothing like the feel of
that trailer pushing you down the road !

Agreed. My 23'r trailer has hydraulic surge brakes which is a plus.
But still, I wouldn't hitch it behind the Honda either..

Surge brakes work very well but you get that split second heart
stopping moment before they kick in.

True . you get that boot-to-the-rear effect as well that is, if
they're not set right.
