I'm looking for some input from you guys who have done this or have knowledge about it in general. I have some camping trips planned this year that I want to take my fishing/hunting boat. Obviously I've towed them separately which takes 2 trips and is time consuming. I'm wanting to tow them at once from here on out. My main concern is safety and am also looking for tips from those who have done it either with a bumper pull or 5th wheel. Am I crazy for wanting to do this? Is there any way to make it safer? No, I will not be getting a 5th wheel to replace my bumper pull.
Trailer = 2001 Wildwood 29ft w/ super slide. Loaded it weighs between 8200lbs-8600lbs.
Boat = 1998 Bass Tracker Pro Team 18ft sport jet 120hp. (aluminum jon style hull) With trailer weighs aprox. 2400lbs
I will be using my Equalizer 4 point sway control weight dist. hitch as always with my camper. Combined length will be within my states length limit which is 75ft. I'd think it would actually be under 65ft which is what my surrounding states are. Most trips will be under 300 miles round trip so I will not be doing this cross country. I wanted get some opinions on this before I order the hitch for the back of my travel trailer. Thank you in advance!
