Default Dodge Dakota Max Boat Size to Tow

I'm thinking about buying a V8 4x4 '98 Dodge Dakota. I also am in the market for a boat. I am looking at boats 18' - 21'. In fact, tonight, I am looking at a 21 footer with a chevy 350 inboard engine on a single axle trailer. Can a Dodge Dakota, like the one I am about to buy, handle that kind of towing duty?
