Lots of things to work out

Including the mileage to all the places we'd like to spend time.
A while back I saw a setup. It was a dually pickup pulling a long camp trailer. On top of the pickup was a 16 to 18' boat...on a trailer. He would haul the boat south for the winter and have a crane lift it off trailer and all. After a winter of camping and boating, he'd have the crane load it back on for the trip home. Obviously he had a special rack built to hold it up there.
Since then, I've found that it's really not an uncommon thing to do. Apparently some large marinas even have cranes set up to do the job.
