x2 on boats having lighter tongues than the same weight cargo trailer. But than boat trailers are not good for WD bars.
I did tow my patio boat with 4' stinger and even with 6000lb camper and heavy winds it had no issues.
Mind your boat will be heavier, than mine, but than having 3" receiver, my stinger was $40 worth of 3" tubing.
Bottom line, you need to read more about COG on such set as the numbers you presented have no real life value in case of TC.
As starter I can estimate that 400lb tongue on 4 ft stinger will put about 700lb on your rear axle.
Not even saying that Torklift superhitch and their stinger will add 300lb alone (on the axle)
