Many of our club members use Class I.
According to this, a Class II is comfortably ok:

I would not recommend a Class I, even if it technically met the specs (less than 2000 lb and less than 200 lb tongue weight). The reason is the length of the trailer - winds can increase the load seen by the hitch quite substantially.
