Can a 2026 Toyota Tacoma tow a Yamaha 190 FSH Sport?
It depends on the engine
We estimate a loaded Yamaha 190 FSH Sport on its trailer at about 3,770 lb. 3 of 4 Tacoma engine/package options pass with a 20% margin (for example the XtraCab, i-FORCE (non-SR)). 1 is not rated for it.
Check your exact setup (add your door-sticker payload and real trailer weight)

2026 Toyota Tacoma towing ratings vs this boat
| Engine / package | Published rating (lb) | Tow | Payload | Result |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SR (2.4L i-FORCE) | 3,500 | FAIL | PASS | FAIL |
| XtraCab, i-FORCE (non-SR) | 6,500 | PASS | PASS | PASS |
| Double Cab, i-FORCE (non-SR) | 6,400 | PASS | PASS | PASS |
| Double Cab, i-FORCE MAX hybrid | 5,950–6,000 | PASS | PASS | PASS |
"Published rating" is the lowest–highest conventional (ball-hitch) rating Toyota prints for that engine/package across cab, bed, drive and axle choices. PASS means the loaded trailer is at or under 80% of the lowest rating. Toyota: ratings per SAE J2807; payload includes occupants, cargo and options.
Tongue weight vs payload
Tongue weight should be 10–15% of the loaded trailer: about 377–566 lb. That comes out of your truck's payload along with everyone in the cab, so with two adults (300 lb) you need roughly 677–866 lb of payload before any cargo in the bed.

Confirm with your door-jamb sticker and owner's manual. Your exact truck's rating depends on cab, bed, drive, axle ratio, options and tires, and your boat's real weight depends on its engine, options, fuel and gear. When in doubt, weigh the rig at a CAT scale.
Gear you may need
Placeholder links (not affiliate links yet). Disclosure.
Trailer brake controller
Boat trailers over about 3,000 lb usually need working trailer brakes (check your state's law); an electric-over-hydraulic or electric setup needs a controller in the truck.
Class IV receiver hitch & ball mount
Match the ball mount drop to your trailer so the boat rides level; the hitch rating must cover the full loaded trailer.
Tongue weight scale
The only way to know your real tongue weight (10-15% of the loaded trailer) before it eats your payload.
