The owners manual of your vehicle will be the final authority, but from what I was able to find it looks like your 2013 Chevy Equinox has a 1,500 lb trailer towing capacity.

So if your boat and trailer weighs less than that we have a hitch part # e98865 which would work well. For trailer wiring you'd then want the part # 118494 which is also a confirmed fit. I attached install videos for both products mentioned.

Since you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
