ToyHauler for a boat?

[BigAbe75]

For those that think about triple towing... another possible option. Wonder if they can squeeze a 240 in there?

Unfortunately our 8'6" beam is too wide for any legal width toy hauler.

So much for wishful thinking. Lol

A Scarab 165 is only 16 ft long with a 7'1" beam. Better yet get a class A and haul a bigger boat.

Wishful thinking here too! I was hoping to find something like that when were ready to upgrade to a 5th wheel camper. I quickly discovered that they don't exist because of the max legal beam of our Yamaha. I found many "custom" jobs that people had put together where they had taken a gooseneck flatbed trailer and mounted an old camper of some form or fashion and would then haul a race car or sandrail on the rest of the open trailer. All the ones that I found were built and owned by guys who were metal fabricators and welders by trade. They were all over built and extremely heavy where you would need a dually 1 ton truck at the minimum to move it. That all combined put an end to my dream of having a setup like that and we went the traditional route.

Check your state laws about length. I believe Indiana has a 50' total length limit so towing a camper and a boat isn't feasible. I believe the big rigs do it but probably have a different classification for the law.
I do however have a class c liscense so perhaps i could get away with it....?

Many states the max limit is 60 - 70 ft area, not sure I have heard of a state with only a 50ft limit considering you can buy a 45ft RV in every state and most pull something behind it. I was 60ft+ when I had my last RV and pulled my wrangler unlimited.

I saw a really cool trailer on a RV forum, it was a stacker trailer that put a boat on the second level and a car on the lower level. It was a open stacker thus no walls... the top level used the actual stacker trailer as the trailer for the boat. The boat was simply lowered all the way down and put in the water eliminating another trailer to deal with. Thought it was a really slick setup

I stand corrected, just looked up the laws, and in Indiana:
Total length: 65 feet; trailer length: 40 feet; width: 102 inches; height: 13 feet 6 inches.

The maximum length of 2 or more vehicles together, including any cargo is 60 feet. The maximum length for 3 or more vehicles together, including a load, is 65 feet. The maximum load size in length is 3 feet beyond the front and 4 feet beyond the rear.
