The tongue of the trailer presses down on the trailer hitch, and that is tongue weight. How hard it presses down is a function of the weight in front of the trailer wheels, and how much of the weight is not offset by the weight behind the wheels. If the tongue weight is too great, the rear of the towing vehicle goes down. Too light, and the boat trailer will swing side to side.
Tongue weight refers to the downward force exerted at the hitch of a trailer when towing a boat. It is crucial for maintaining stability while towing; ideally, tongue weight should be 10-15% of the total trailer weight. Proper tongue weight helps prevent swaying and improves handling, ensuring safer towing conditions. Too little or too much tongue weight can lead to trailer instability and potentially dangerous driving situations.
Livestock trailers will generally hold between 4 and 8 tons. Also, if they have 2 axles they can support more weight.
depends how big the boat is
The answer is simple, the amount of weight a boat can hold depends on how big your boat is the bigger the boat the more water it displaces the more weight it can hold.

It depends on the size of the boat.
Yes. There are many well built aluminum trailers that will stand up to the weight of 4 horses. Just make sure you buy a big enough trailer to handle the size and weight of your horses. There are even aluminum horse trailers that are designed to hold 6 or more horses.
The Joke: Not much it sank The truth: A floating boat will displace the same weight in water that it weighs. So the real question is how much does it displace or how much does it weigh
Yes. However, the trailer should not exceed the rated towing weight of the vehicle. There are several models of pop-up trailers that are towable for a Jeep Wrangler, CJ-7, etc. The vehicle towing weight should be in the owner's manual--or you can call a Jeep dealer and ask them. Also, the tongue weight of the trailer should not exceed what your hitch is rated for (the tongue weight is how much the hitch of the trailer weighs when you pick it up). Generally, if you can pick up the tongue of the trailer to put it on the ball of the hitch by hand, you don't have to worry about exceeding the tongue rating (unless you can dead-lift more than a couple hundred pounds).
The buoyant force acting on the boat is equal to the weight of the water displaced, which is equal to the weight of the boat. Therefore, a 10N boat would displace 10N of water.
