Gonna derail my own thread here and really show my noob-ness: How the heck do you navigate secondary roads with a boat hitched up like that?! Can you really turn right from a two way two lane to a two way two lane?

I had grand plans to tow my boat with my TC until I went on a test ride with a 31' stacker in tow. That thing really could not turn in the scenario above unless the other lane was clear or the folks at the light or stop sign backed up to make room.

What is the trick to that? My boat/trailer is 41' from tongue to lower unit, with the trailer axles waaay back like thunderous. I'd love to use the TC to tow it, but I haven't figured out how to do it. Maybe I need to go to CDL School.
