The best solution I can offer you is to cut the Euro 7-way off of your vehicle and wire a new 7-way to your vehicle by function.

The best way to do that is to use a circuit tester like our # PTW2993 to determine the functions of the wires by having a buddy apply the different brake and tail light functions while you use the # 3808 to determine which wire does what and then wire it to the 7-way like the picture I attached.

Once you do this you will be able to tow your boat trailer, but also any other trailer with a 7-way. For a 7-way you could get a 7-Way # HM40975-11998.
