Looking forward to buy a Sundance NX17 next month, still need a trailer and hitch, now i know that should be the easy part but I get lost in the maze of hitches...I hope any of you guys got experience with hitches, is this one any good? Got a '00 ford f150 that has to do the towing. Thanks

Tongue weight of 500 lbs and tow weight of 5,000 lbs. A Sundance NX17 is likely lighter in both those categories but verify to make sure. Then you'll be ready to tow.

Thanks, i guess it will fall way under that limit, even with trailer...

I just googled a picture of the boat. That boat would be lucky to push 1500 - 2000 pounds and a tongue weight of 150 - 200 pounds. Your truck won't even know it is back there!

just remember you still need a ball mt. with the right drop and the right size ball for the trailer then the electrical for the truck and the plug for the trailer while your ordering stuff
