Just like the topic says, does anyone regularly tow a 26-28' bowrider? I currently trailer a 23' Monterey every week in the summer on a tandem axle trailer with surge brakes, unfortunately there are not any good options close by that have a marina or lake house option. The next boat will likely be a Cobalt 262 or 272, regardless it will not exceed an 8'6" beam because I do not want to deal with oversize load issues. I'm not worried about my truck, it's a 2013 Ecoboost F150 with every tow option including the mirrors, 3.73 rear end, and upgraded cooling. I also have a number of performance upgrades and load range E tires, so the extra weight won't be a problem. I'm more interested in the reality of going from a 23' to a 26-28', and if it will be significantly more cumbersome to tow. Typical lake trip is 45 min and mostly rural, though different lakes do sometimes take us through cities. Any feedback would be appreciated!
