My DW and I saw a similar set up in the summer of 1971.
One of the hip sayings at the time was " It must be nice "
I think the owner had heard that once too often as on the side of the coach was a decal " YES IT IS ".

Simple, the boat is on a boat trailer and it lowers down. You hook up the SUV to the boat and your off fishing.

We have friends that have a 45' Newell, pull a full sized Hummer H2, and a 21' cruiser behind that. I can't figure out why they never get stopped.

Hmm, trailer with SUV, Harley and 17' boat with motor on a non-tag coach. It would be interesting to see a scale weight on the rear axle.

WOW! That is a lot of stuff!

And I was thinking the little car I'd like to tow along with us was excessive. Apparently I do not think big enough.

Hey they probably told him with a diesel you can tow anything and he took them at their word.
