Ed,
I'd check with the dealer/manufacturer to be safe. My first thought is it sounds a little light. I tow with a Ford F150 Supercrew 4x4 5.4L engine. It's rated at 12,000lb and has no trouble pulling it. I think you'd be looking at:

boat(dry wt) 2200lb
motor 500 (will depend on 2 or 4 stroke)
fuel 420 (70 gal x 6lb/gal...I think this is right)
trailer 1200 (pure guess)
gear 200
people 500+- (S-M-L-XL,...)
-------
Total 5020 total estimated lbs.
