Hello Leo, thanks for reaching out. You are looking for a hitch for a 2014 Honda Accord, correct? If so, the Curt Class 1 Hitch # C11681 is exactly the right hitch. It has a 2,000 lb towing capacity so more than enough for your small kayak trailer.

As you intend to tow a trailer, you will also need to install the Curt T-Connector # C59236. You will also need a ball mount, and for that I recommend part # e47DR which comes with a 2" ball.

Thank you for the reply. Will the 2inch ball be enough for the 1 7/8 coupler on the trailer ?

@LeoR Nope. For that you will need a ball mount and 1-17/8" ball. Here is what I recommend: - Draw-Tite Drawbar for 1-1/4" Hitches - 5" Rise - 10" Long - 3,500 lbs # 36065 - 1-7/8" Hitch Ball - 3/4" Diameter x 1-9/16" Long Shank - Chrome - 2,000 lbs # 19256
