A hitch on the front??? Yup, when we go camping, we often take bikes. The front hitch holds the bike racks. Like so: http://www.forestriverforums.com/att...d962a0676d.jpg I thought you might be one of those people who "backs" trailers connected to a front hitch. That was a thing for a while. People on boat ramps hate that. I've never seen it done at a boat ramp. I wouldn't blame folks for getting ****ed if they had to stand and watch an unhitching and rehitching. Putting the boat into a garage or tight driveway would be a great use of a front hitch. "I haven't seen it done at boat ramps but I've seen it often in boat yards and RV storage/repair places. Often the ball is installed on one of the forks of a fork truck."Brother in law and nephew have been trying to convince me to take my bow rider down to their "cottage" on Porters Lake... a half hour north east of Halifax. I've complained the road leading to their own launch area and dock was a little too narrow and curved for my backing up skills.They now have an answer. They bought a Bobcat small tractor and a set of forks. On one of the forks is a trailer hitch ball.Guess I'll have to launch there next year if I keep the boat. Was down there a couple times in the last two weeks. Latest project is installing a small roll up garage type door 8nto the end of a shipping container they have on site. Originally it was a 40 foot one that they cut in half. One half went to my nephews construction company while the brother in law uses the other for storing tools etc.

Thinking of selling your Bay Liner?
