Good setup. Removes the whole issue on the tow vehicle's support tongue weight. I did notice that they didn't add the safety chains on the hitch. That would be my concern with this setup.

Launching and retrieving could pose a problem.......................course the owner probably has a unique method for that too............Ohio tags..................go figure.........

I wish your friend could've gotten a picture 2 seconds after the first pothole that trailer jack wheel hits!

Launching is the easy part: make sure there's no transom straps attached, unhook the winch rope from the bow eye, get up a little speed, aim for the launch ramp, and stomp the brakes HARD before hitting the water. A nice arc while the stern drops and breaks the surface. Recovery - not quite so easy.

That might be a problem negotiating curves. lol

Don't see a ball/hitch anyway, would be hard to tow without a hitch (unless I'm blind).

I hope he wasn't towing it to a scrap yard/dump , that aint a bad old boat for it's age.

Don't see how it is even staying on there. Brave soul.

Ahah, there you are Ladyfish .

in 1970 i tow a one wheel camping trailer from San Diego across the country on 2 week trip, to see the country. had a hitch on each side of the bumper, and wheel in the center of the trailer, legs on 4 corner of the trailer. neat trip.

Re: Typical iboater on way to lake???

How long do you think that jack wheel is going to last? With just a sleve bearing, I expect just a few blocks before it heats up, melts or seizes. Then its jack post on pavement....
