15% tongue weight - good. Try adjusting your mirrors out just so you cannot see your trailer when driving straight down the road. Go for a drive and report back... see if sway improved.
I just did 300 miles with that tongue weight. I don't need mirrors to let me know the 29 ft trailer is fish tailing. You could blindfold me and I'd still feel it.
At 1,300 lbs of tongue weight I am over my hitch receiver rating by 30%. I need to keep it at 1000 lbs or 11% tongue weight.

In order to get a 15% tongue weight with your trailer the tongue weight will have to be 1330 You need a new heavier duty hitch!
