I'd do it but Toyota says no towing, even though the same engine and trans are rated to tow as much as 3500lbs in a Highlander and 2000lbs in a Camry. A jetski should be fine.

Of course the Highlander and Camry might have additional provisions, like an uprated transcooler.

Of course. I wouldn't dream of towing 3500lbs with the XB but I'd tow 1000lbs occasionally without a second thought. I figure 2000lbs max would be safe with the right hitch and AT cooler. JMO.
