Question:
I’m curious – what states is a triple allowed?
Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Kanasa, Texas, Minn and several others. But Congress decided about three years ago that no other states could make it legal, and once any state changed it’s mind and baned them, it couldn’t go back. — RV and Camping FAQ http://kendaco.telebyte.com/rlindber/rv If Windows is the answer I would really like to know what the question is

Looking for advice about boats to put on truck, pulling 5th wheel. Anyone have one they can recommend? We have a Ford SD 250 long bed, pulling Avion Westport 5th Wheel (35 feet). Want something stable to take to Alaska.
Besides a inflatable the only other choice is a fold-a-boat, I would say that the inflatable is the best choice. Since you will not be able to triple (tow the boat behind your RV). Far too many states don’t allow this, neither does, I believe, anyplace in Canada. — RV and Camping FAQ http://kendaco.telebyte.com/rlindber/rv If Windows is the answer I would really like to know what the question is

I’ve got a 12′ Fold-Bote for sale. It’s located in New Braunfels, TX. It folds down to 4" thick and can mount on the side of an RV, depending on configuration of the RV. I carried it on a 32′ Holiday Rambler 5th wheel but bought a new Prowler with slide-outs and can’t mount it. See in most RV catalogs like Camping World. Asking $600.00 for it with the small trailer and oars. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text -Looking for advice about boats to put on truck, pulling 5th wheel. Anyone have one they can recommend?

I’ve never even heard of a "triple"; I’d have to say on Alaska roads towing a trailer behind a trailer is so illegal that an Alaska State Trooper might likely confiscate your rig and throw you in jail on sight. I’m curious – what states is a triple allowed? Perhaps a fold-a-boat might work on small lakes on calm sunny days…if you limit your boating to those conditions a canoe is actually the better option. With a 14 or so foot inflatable with a healthly size outboard, boating options increase alot – like being able to boat the larger, more interesting lakes like the Kenai, or saltwater travel out of Homer. With alittle boating experiance the Yukon River is definately Zodiac-able. Hans – Juneau, AK

Gwen in SE PA I’ll suggest something light and managable like a Zodiac MK II with a 25hp 4-stroke with remote and electric start – get launching wheels for the Zodiac, preferably the aftermarket "wheel-a-weigh" type made in Squim, WA. Anything else thats approprate for Alaska waters (even a summer lake in Alaska can get dangerous) would be too heavy and generally require a trailer to launch and retrieve. Hans – Juneau, AK
