Well, all that's going to put you over the limit.
Also remember 9500# is the boat's dry weight. Add 894# for 149gals of fuel, 152# for 19gal of water, and another 500# for miscellaneous stuff.

That's over 14K#, you're only good for 12.5K#. That's a no-go.

I have a 06-F250 Diesel Super Duty I added air bags and changed my hitch to the Putnam and upgraded the receiver & ball. I pull a 382 on a Manning trailer tri-axle disc brakes and it pull and stops it with no problems.

If set up correctly you will be good to go.
