Truck campers unlock the open road, but what happens when you hitch a boat? If you tow a boat behind your camper, we want to hear your story!
There’s something undeniably powerful about combining a truck camper with a boat. One puts you at home just about anywhere; a lakeside campsite, a forest trailhead, or a marina parking lot. The other opens the door to a whole new dimension of adventure, from bass-filled coves and saltwater bays to high-speed tubing and quiet sunset cruises.
For some, it’s about the thrill of casting a line at first light with no hotel check-out or early morning drive required. For others, it’s about quality family time: towing the kids on an inner tube, exploring remote inlets, or relaxing on deck after a day of travel. And then there are those who live for the competition; trailering from tournament to tournament with their camper as home base, boat in tow.
Over the years we’ve talked to readers who do it all: fish, ski, swim, cruise, and camp; all in one trip. They say there’s nothing more freeing than setting out with your truck camper and boat hitched behind, ready for both land and water without compromise.
Now we want to hear from you.
Do you tow a boat with your truck camper rig?
What kind of boat do you tow? Where do you go? What does your combined land-and-water setup allow you to do that nothing else can? Is it about fishing, family time, competition—or simply the joy of freedom on and off the water?
