You have to have one of these when your truck camper "junk" hangs out the back. I'm getting too old for this DIY shit, but hey, do it now rather than later. Flushed the fresh water tank on the new Lance with bleach and water today too.

Flushed the fresh water tank on the new Lance with bleach and water today too. Oh boy, that’s new technology!!! Looks sturdy as hell. My stinger is a 36” two piece but the chains don’t tighten to tie downs like yours, they go directly back to the hitch.

Our first test flight was a perfect trip. 550 miles round trip. The biggest problem I have now is I don't know I'm towing the boat, be it visual or the ride itself! Might be time for a camera mounted on the TC to know the boat is there. LOL!

I’ve had my camper on while backing the boat down a few ramps before and wished I had a BC… It will come to fruition pretty soon.
