That's pushing the limit for towing capacity. I suggest you downshift to third if your rpms are low while going up hill. There is probably a code set that could be read. Have you flushed the tranny lately? Pulling a trailer will create a lot of strain and wear on the internal pumps.
As for rowing, that probably let the tranny fluid cool off just enough to function normally.
