Custom Portable Propane Soft Tub!

Im working on A Custom Portable hot tub for taking on the road traveling. I have a Soft Tub T300 and have gutted the lid to upgrade insulation to R-max Foam board insulation to increase Efficiency and decrease weight. For the Pump system I plan on using a Shurflo 12vdc pump with adequate flow hooked up to a On demand Propane hot water heater plumbed into a Thermostatic mixing valve. Wondering of any outside thoughts and ideas and if anyone has seen a setup like this or any other portable hot tub?

    Since you are, as you say, "This is my first motor home and im new to it all!," I'd concentrate on getting the basics down before you think about bringing a hot tub along. Do some camping first and see how it all works.
    Just thinkin'.

    Back of the rig or Top back, Undecided on that. Might be part of the tow rig setup. The tub empty is light enough for me(im 26). As far as emptying at campsites i only use Biodegradable all natural products so it would just be water. Also I work as a wild harvester and will be trying not to use campsites. This is my first motor home and im new to it all!

    Just wondering where are you going to transport/store this set up between campsites? And how are you going to empty it at a campsite?
