I got to thinking about some of the guys on here are having a problem backing their boats up at the boat ramp or other places. When I had my 25’ motorhome and a 17’ Skeeter bass boat I could not see the trailer when backing up.
I solved my problem real easy. I had a temporary front trailer hitch built that I could bolt it on when going to the lake or just plain fishing local. It would clamp on the front bumper and had its own ball. When I got to the campground, I would unhitch and turn the motorhome around or move the trailer to the front and rehitch. I would drive/push the boat to the ramp, unload my boat and back up and push the trailer with the motorhome back to my camping spot. When loading, I would drive to the boat ramp, load up and move trailer to the back again for the trip home. Man did I have a lot of lookers and folks following me back to my camping spot to check my front mounted hitch. It worked great all the years I had the motorhome and boat. You could mount this front hitch on your truck, suv, or car if possible.
