What's the issue? Long distance towing is a check of a lot different than going no more than 35-40 mph a few miles down the road. That's assuming you do not have any serious grades to go up or down, IE over 15%!
Hook and go!

Come on Marty......dont you know using common sense without 172 pages of quantum physics calculations is required here or at any other RV forum? Especially when it comes to pulling a 21' boat that has less drag and probably puts less weight on the truck than hauling a new refrigerator home from Lowes in the bed. The OP is going to need a one ton diesel dually for that boat.
I'd skip the 1 ton dually, go big! class 8! Besides, most one tons have the ability to fit in the DOT class 4 range today.....unlike yesterdays 1 tons!
