I think he probably could have gotten by with a SRW one ton.

IMHO It's real! Why wouldn't it be???

Measure on your screen from bottom of front tire to top or cab on a pc of paper, now raise that up and its the same height from top of cab to top of boat. That would put you at around 13'. Straight line across top of RV to top of boat aligns.

Or as an acquaintance of mine used to say, there is a fine line between keen and dumb.

Looks totally photoshopped. The piece supporting the tongue looks a lot smaller than would be needed and it has no lateral bracing. The bow of the boat also looks to be much higher than the 5th wheel trailer, and those are usually close to max legal height.

My first thought as well.

Also, there's not a bumper-pull style ball hitch rated to cover the weight of the RV alone. Ever since I saw those tow dollies and the "pull any RV" mentality it expresses, I've been saying that it doesn't get you around the max tow weight capabilities of the ball hitch.

Assuming he is with someone, he needs to get another truck or suv to follow and pull the boat then they can get rid of that thingamajig that's towing the fifth plus they would have a nicer daily driver.

He's missing a bike rack.

Fuel economy would be horrible. My guess is that it would back up better than a cargo trailer hooked to a fifth wheel hooked directly to the truck.

Ummm yeah....no.
There's an old sayin.
Just because it's possible, don't mean you should do it.
