Do what you will, but you need a bigger truck.

I have to disagree, I think that truck is more than enough.

A 29' boat with a F-150?

Are you serious?

Yes. Remember that I " wash the trucks as they come of the
truck" ...remember?
(snarky remark you made discussing
Vipers, and the T-10 Engine)
My Astro Van can pull my 20' tank of a boat, on a twin axle trailer.
It also launches, and recovers it as well.
Are the F-150s you get in the states de-tuned or something? Put your
foot in it.

It has absolutely nothing to do with the engine. It has everything to do
with the suspension, brakes, and rear end ratio. The F-150 is a light duty
truck. I don't know what the 29' boat weighs, but I suspect it is at least
5000 lbs ..... probably more when engine, gas and gear are factored in.
The F 150, although maybe "rated" by Ford to be adequate ... isn't, IMO, for
any long distance, hauling of a boat that size.
