Anyone towing w/ and RV? I would love to hear experiences and ideas about ideal RV to tow with. Wife and I are considering cruising around with my 260 Bowrider behind an RV as a potential option. So towing rating should be on the 10K side for me to be in an overkill situation. Or is GVW of the RV preventing such tow ratings???

THE 260 IS A BIT HEAVY TO TOW WITH AN RV. CHECK THE RV TOW RATINGS TO MAKE SURE. IF YOU FIND ONE THAT CAN HANDLE IT, I WOULD HAVE A FRONT TOW HITCH INSTALLED. MUCH EASIER GOING DOWN THE RAMP FORWARD, THAN BACKWARDS, PLUS, SOME OF THOSE BIG RV'S GET THE BACK END WET WHEN BACKING INTO THE WATER.
 
It must not be a popular way of travel, I find it quite hard to even find tow ratings listed for most RV's. I see some of the diesel pushers rated at 10,000. Front tow for lauchning sounds like a good options for the steeper ramps. Keeping the back of the rig out of the water is a good idea, there is a lot of overhang on most of them.
Thanks GSENT!
