I think you'll be fine if you stay down on the weight.
I pull a Rockwood 2701ss ultra lite that is 31' over all length. It weighs in at 5820lbs loaded with all my camping gear (chairs tables,grills supplies) no food or personal stuff.

By the way our trailer has a tongue wt if 660lbs.
stay within these type of limits you should do fine. just my 2cents.
