BTW Don, if you need some guidance, there are YouTube videos of some twin towing Air Stream camper types who do the two trialer backing thing. Neat to watch, but I'm not going to try it.  :'(



Me too Duane.  Me too.  One time had a trailer behind another rig that had to move a short distance.  Didn't even consider combined movement at the parking end.  One at a time.

This just made me think of something.  Don't know if it's a difference in time, rules or what.  But from when I was a kid in SoCal I've got recollections of seeing quite a few boats behind campers.  On the way down to the Salton Sea most likely.  Something have almost never seen since though.

Up here in Canada, I think only Alberta, Sask, and Manitoba allow a boat behind a trailer.

I've seen quite a few boats behind 5th wheels, but many states don't allow double towing.
I would like to bring my boat along at times, but I'd never get out of Jersey with the double.

Here's a better-engineered version http://www.automatedsafetyhitch.com/.  Costs about $12,000 but has more bells and whistles, like auto-connect and auto-alignment.
