Default 2008 Honda Accord

Does anyone know the towing capacity for the 2008 Honda Accord Coupe or 4-Door? I would like to tow my boat with it, I know it seems a little weird, but my prelude had a 1,000 lb towing capacity, and I was able to tow around my jet ski just fine, and I only have a small 19ft ski boat.

A 19ft ski boat is not a small boat, it is a small ski boat. It weighs way, way more than 1000lb.-more than an Accord can tow. I have a 19ft bass boat and a truck to pull it with. I couldn't imagine towing it with my Accord, or any other car.

There's no way this would be safe, and you car would probably lose the tranny and all rear suspension and braking in 2 miles.

A 19ft ski boat and trailer weigh 4x-5x what a jet ski and trailer weighs. You are talking about a Bayliner/Sea Ray/etc right? A Mastercraft/Ski Nautique would be even heavier.
