I double tow pulling my jet ski. My opinion is that a rear view camera is a must have. I put my truck in a ditch last winter, and doing so, I messed up my camera cable that I had ran under the truck. Well this spring/summer I double pulled without my back up camera. I could not see any part of my ski, unless I was making a turn, so unless you pull over every once in a while to check the boat trailer, you will not know if you have a problem or not, like maybe a flat tire on it. I also learned this past summer, that you DO NOT make any sudden moves. I was gawking over in a field and dropped my front right tire off the pavement, it startled me, so I jerked the wheel to get back on the road�VERY BAD THING TO DO so I found out later. As I said, I was double pulling without my rear camera. When I got home, I got out of the truck and went and looked at my jet ski, the ski was almost laying on its side, but still on the trailer. The winch had broken off, and was dangling. When I jerked the steering wheel, it had to have had a VERY violent effect on the ski trailer. If I had not had the ski tied down, I surely would have lost the jet ski on the highway, which was a narrow two way, with Labor Day traffic, it would have been a disaster, someone would have probably died that day. Have to be so very careful, and PAY ATTENTION to where you are going, I didn't.
