You should have no issue whatsoever towing a boat with any Jeep. Also, you should have no problem pushing a boat with someone else, even on a slight hill. Just dont let it get a rolling start.

that combo is around 2300lbs w motor and trailer, maybe a little more, a grand cherokee can tow 5-6k pounds, my buddy tows a porsche and trailer w one long distance around 5k pds. Just be careful and look the boat over well, a 1990 is gonna have alot of rigging done to it so be sure you know what your buying. the older suzuki 2 strokes are gas and oil guzzlers but skeeter always made a nice hull, Im sure its a hell of alot better than the tinny your fishing out of now

If you can push the trailer up your street then it should be able to back it up with your jeep, depending on where you live I'd show you how.
