I have the baby brake edition of the Expedition apparently and my set up is very dangerous for the seven miles I drive down country roads to the ramp... lol

Ooops. Doesn't take much to create this when you're overloaded.
The pickup appears to be a half ton 2wd.

The truck was not the problem... look at the trailer, the boat exceeds the back of trailer by... simply too long !

Not trying to be a smart ass but what do you use the large winch bumper setup for?

The whole combination looks tippy from the get go. Even if the boat was properly in place on a correct trailer, the truck is a bit small to safely & comfortably handle it.
