Land Rover Series 3 Towing Capacity

If it's absolutely flat, and the surface is good, there's not going to be much issue...

But won't moving a boat about a yard often tend to include dragging it out of the water up the slope of a slipway?

The trailer would actually be a drawbar turntable two axle trailer and will only be used the keep the boat on it and occasional move in the yard when absolutely necessary. Hauling out of the water and launching will be done by crane.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0xpuub2DBB8

So I guess if that guy can pull a plane my old Landie should be able to cope.
On a flat surface you should have no problems provided you stick to no more than walking pace as stopping power will be marginal; plenty of landrovers have shifted more weight over short distances. Just take it slow, low ratio 1st and don't let the load take control. It would be different matter if there was a significant slope. As others have said this only applies if the vehicle is generally in sound condition, a knackered farm hack with a rear crossmember made of mud and underseal won't cut it.
