The costal states, for the most part, is where it is not allowed. I have double towed since about 1999. Tens of thousands of miles at this point. I've towed countless boats, and my ATVs. If you have it set up correctly (read a qualified welder add the hitch on the back of the first trailer), it is very uneventful. The biggest down side is fueling up, and the bounce you get by the tongue weight of the 2nd trailer. I imagine you wouldn't get very much bounce at all towing a Jeep as the second "trailer". A couple of mine. ***Link Removed*** Thanks. The Crownline is about 5500 pounds. I have since sold it, and upgraded to a bigger boat that I feel is too heavy to comfortably tow tandem. Now it is two tow vehicles going to the lake. Which has a lot of downside...... Thanks for the info, I just bought a 14' tandem axle enclosed trailer to haul my UTV behind my 5er that is going about 5000 lbs., so I was just curios. I haven't had a chance to tow it yet but getting it ready for a hunting trip coming up in a couple of weeks.219Views0likes0CommentsRe: Towing Doubles
