Thanks for your responses. I appreciate everyone's input.
One of the reasons why I asked this question about taking off the camper is there are many places where I launch my boat now with my F150 truck that I can barely squeeze that truck into the launching place - some are too overgrown either above my cab, or the have narrow openings to get in to them. Others are quite steep, and/or with lots of ruts getting in to them or out. It is bad enough with my regular pickup, and I'm not sure how my dually will manage them even without a camper. I think they would be nearly impossible with a truck camper on the truck.
One of my favorite river sections to fish requires me to switch the boat trailer to my Polaris Ranger and use it at the take out spot because the place is so narrow, and with so overhung tree branches, that I can't easily get my truck in there, especially near dark.
I guess I'll begin by practicing loading and unloading in my garage a few times and see how it goes.
