Something doesn't look quite right here but I can't put my finger on it. Video can be found here on facebook

Bob - would you go with surge brakes or EOH in this case? Laughing

Needs a weight distributing hitch--look how much it is raising the back of that SUV! Probably putting roller skates on the front support would help with the balance. Most likely the 5th wheeler is stolen! No, this one already has electric brakes, and unless he uses it in salt water, it should be fine.

Only problem is that he is not triple towing, with the C Dory at the end of the chain!

That's the solution for those who want a 5th wheel, but don't like the idea of a pickup as a daily driver. Wink

This is what happens when you don't watch the video that comes with the trailer! Disgust

I wonder if they specified an "Air Head" in the aft, upper room Rolling Eyes

Oops, you're all correct. I saw the video was on Facebook and thought I would not be able to watch it (I'm not a member); but indeed, I was able to, and.... no boat. Obviously just as well! What a haywire rig.
