Three in a row

We have a 40 ft DP and a Jeep Cherokee. We take our boat once a year for two months to northern Michigan from Kansas, about 1200 miles. We have been driving both MH and jeep, one towing the boat. Has any one ever towed a boat behind the toad? The boat weights 1500 ponunds.

I have never pulled toad, and trailer at same time. Have friend who pulls Jeep Liberty with trailer for golf cart behind it. Pulls on short trips around 100 miles,says it pulls good. Don't know if it is legal!

One, you are probably going to be overlength. Second many states prohibit double towing unless the first vehicle is registered as a road tractor.
The only way to be sure is to check with each state for their regs.

I think your first trailer has to be a fifth wheel style trailer. Then your second trailer can be attached by a regular hitch. Plus you would probably be required to have a class A license.

I have seen these triple rigs in Canada and 2 years ago I saw two of them traveling together heading north on back roads in FL. Don't know if it's legal in FL but the ones I've seen always look like Ma and Pa Kettle in their dilapidated rigs.

According to Wiki:
Triple towing is not allowed in some states, such as California,[2] Alabama,[5] Florida,[6] or New York;[4] however, triple towing is permitted in Texas if the combined length does not exceed 65 feet (21 m).[3]

A buddy of mine is big bass fisherman here in TX, and a number bass guys tow a boat behind a fifth wheel trailer. The key is the combined length issue and getting a stong enough 5th wheel that can take the tongue and pull weight. With my MH and boat, I'm already at 61ft so there would no way for me to tow off of the Ford Explorer.

Take a look here.

I would make sure that both have breaks and not exceed tow vheicle limits.

On this website, I have seen an ad for a trailer which allows a car/small truck and a boat. In several magazines, there is an ad for such a device. Do a google search on car/boat trailers or combinations of such, you should get several hits. This stacks the boat in the air above the front half of the toad. Texas allows triples, as well as Washington state, must be 5th wheel. MH cannot be over a certain lenght. I would recommend CDL training if you are planning on a triple type of setup, less hassel from the state.
