Trailer Hitch Extension for Motorhome To Use When Launching A Boat
Updated 05/13/2021 | Published 05/11/2021 >
Question:
I want an extension behind my motorhome so I can back my boat into the lake without getting our motor home wet. I would only use it for putting in and taking out.

Expert Reply:
The Draw-Tite Hitch Extender # HE18 is out longest trailer hitch extension that does not require a specialty trailer hitch. It will allow you to extend the hitch 18". This extension will reduce the hitch capacity on your motorhome by 50% or 350lbs tongue weight and 3,500lbs trailer weight, whichever is lower.
If you let me know what motorhome you have I can see if there is a specialty hitch available that would allow you to use a longer extension.
