Assume I can invert it to tow a pontoon boat/trailer and a bike rack - correct?

It is very sturdy and appears to be able to be inverted, as long as you have enough ground clearance.

what do you mean? if you fill the receiver end with the rack, how are you pulling a trailer without welding another receiver on the rack. Which would demand some modifications and beefing up. So my answer is No. Out of the box, not a chance. but after I was done with tweaking it.. yup.

I would not trust it to do it. Its thin, flimsy and I wish I could send it back. Fine for cargo, boxes, fire wood light bikes, but that's all I would use it for

Yes. There is a bracket that attaches to your bike that holds the tow bar while not in use.

You can flip it but from the welds it seems doing that would reduce the strength of the hitch.

We bought this specifically to haul a trailer. It just happens to work well with a bike rack even though that was not the intended use for our purchase.

It's possible but you have to be a contortionist. Have to have a lot of weight on the platform and if you have to back up be careful or you will bend the hitch arm before you realize it. I would never buy one like this again. I would suffer with a roller I would fill with water first.

Its designed to hook over the gunwale of a boat. I would not use it for your purpose.

Depends on how much junk you have in the boat... and how far you're going to haul it. Big motor..? I wouldn't do it, since the weight would hang quite a bit back on the load. The trailer is stout enough, but I'd be sensible about how much it could handle.

I'd say no, because then the hook system would also be sideways. You'd have to fashion some sort of custom hook set up.

Wont really work. The cable is too short, and the motor is onloy designed t omount on the bow of the boat, and so won't rotate 180-degrees to be mounted on the stern.

I don't think you will like this for towing your boat. I only used mine one time, and that was only about 400 ft on grass moving a 3500 lb camper using a small tractor. It felt very loose and wobbly and I wouldn't have used it if I had time to find something else. I was only going about 3 mph. It made enough torque to bend a hitch adaptor I was using so I can imagine it might be able to damage itself. A non-adjustable shank with the drop or rise you need is probably a better idea.

Depends. I was able to mount my wife's upside down. My daughter's bike barely fit the regular way. So I was able to get them on without issue, but a converter bar might have been easier for my wife's.

Hi Colleen,I don't see why not. We never had any one person get towed. I'm thinking it might make it tow a little crooked because the weight isn't distributed or centered. sorry I couldn't help you more.

You can't tow ANYTHING with it. It says so right on the box: "For BIKE RACK only"

Yes, as long as the item you're towing isn't larger than a small car and not for very long distances.

Yes it can be used that way but, it depends on the depth of the hole you are lifting out of. That being said I use a doubled come- a- long hoist instead of chain. That way you can use that to get the required lift to swing out of hole and re hook once out and load on to truck. Hope this answers your question.
