Default Towing an Outer limits SV52 with F250...

2016 F250 4x4 w/ 6.7 Power stroke on the tow ball....good to go? Single Rear Axle

Dry weight of vessel is 10,800 lbs I believe, not sure about trailer weight.

You've got the right screen name to make it happen.

Make sure you get a good class V ball mount that can handle the weight. With trailer and any fuel/gear and you're probably easily over 15k pounds. Airbags in the rear wouldn't hurt either.

Screams Jimbo Darr......but I will play along:

Sure since the OL is a SV52 and that is like a 250 but backwards then that means it will be fine! The good part is you will be towing the boat twice because at 10,800 that means the boat has been cut in half like those whacky 1960's Boston Whaler commercials.

Please video your trip, surely it will go viral!

That boat might weigh 10800 if it were sitting on Pluto.

Straight off their website, and that's probably before they put anything in it

That is an SL52 full cabin, loaded, dry weight not SV52. It all depends on which boat for the weight as they had different lay ups and options. Call me at the shop for a weight.

Darr would use an ecoboost f150.
