I wouldn't even consider a 100 for towing unless you like looking at your pyro all the time and controlling egts with your foot. #10 is the best all round plate.

Yes I agree that is a great picture! Here is another picture of what my plate looks like. I took my stock plate and ground it mysefl on a grinder wheel, then made it nice and smooth with a dremel. Obviously it did not cost me one single penny, and it made a HUGE difference in power! I tow a 4500# boat with no problems, and the smoke is minimal if I drive normal. Just thought I would post it up as another option for you....a very CHEAP option

Nope
your EGTS will be very very hard to manage, and uncontrolable, and you risk damaging pump internals as well. The 0 plate is just there to prevent that sort of damage. I have run plateless before and it was just insane..
