Can actually fit four adults. Blue Ox tow bar; RV2 braking system; Blue Ox base plate. Just setting up system so can't report on how successful my research and purchases are yet....

Still deciding between Hopkins and Curt wiring harness and which drop hitch (4" or 6") to go with. Wanted a dual receiver drop hitch (to mount Swagman bike rack above tow bar), but having trouble finding a dual receiver drop hitch in 6".

Tow bar and braking system off of Craigslist...fair amount of availability if you start looking early enough. Do the research before hand on what system(s) you like and then hope they show up for sale. Picked up mine for about one third new cost, so don't forget about that marketplace. Will self-install all (including a Curt receiver hitch for the Fiat for bicycle rack).

It's the dingy after all....not the yacht! If you don't need to go off-road or cross-country, think about small and light for your "dingy."

Rig is an 2017 A.C.E. 29.3 (front and rear CHF done).

You could also go with a 500e and not ever have to buy gas for the toad...ever LOL.
