Default Q7 Max Towing Capacity

I have a 2015 Q7. Stated max towing capacity is 6600 lbs. I want to tow a boat that weighs 6200 lbs plus the trailer is approx 1000 lbs. Does anyone know if safe and possible to tow 7200lbs vs. max stated capacity of 6600? I have a factory installed hitch. Any insight would be helpful. Thanks.

The max permissible load on the hitch is 660 lbs. It's a class III hitch. Thanks.

It's a bit more complicated. See my post in response to 2017 Q7 question, different engines but hitch limits are the same:
