Dinghy Towing

You decided to Flat Tow, find out what it takes

Dinghy towing, also known as flat towing, refers to the practice of towing a vehicle behind a motorhome or RV with all four wheels on the ground. This method allows travelers to bring a secondary vehicle along for easy access to local attractions without needing to drive the larger RV. It’s popular among RV enthusiasts because it offers flexibility and convenience.

To safely dinghy tow, the vehicle must be equipped with a compatible towing setup, including a tow bar, safety cables, and often a supplemental braking system. Proper setup ensures that both the RV and towed vehicle can travel smoothly and securely on the road, making it a favorite choice for road trips and adventures.

1. Tow Bars: Light and easy to use, tow bars are used to safely and efficiently tow a car behind your motorhome. Shaped like the letter “A”, it connects to both the towing and towed vehicles.
2. Baseplates: A proper baseplate protects you and your vehicles from damage, and it works by safely attaching the towed vehicle’s frame to the tow bar.
3. Wiring: Connects the wiring from the towing vehicle to the towed vehicle to ensure the brake lights and turn signals activate when towing.
4. Deflector: This shield blocks debris from hitting the car or car’s windshield and directs it to pass under the towed vehicle.
5. Braking System: Enjoy a truly safe supplemental braking system that takes the load off of your motorhome by allowing both your motorhome and the towed vehicle to brake at the same time. When you need to stop quickly, supplemental brakes will require less time and distance when you make a controlled stop on the road. This also helps to reduce the strain on your tow bar and mounting brackets.
6. Towed Connectors: Connects the running, turning, and braking lights of the motorhome to activate the lights on the towed vehicle.

Revolutionize the RV Lifestyle & Experience
 

Traveling in an RV is a rewarding experience for a lot of different reasons. You can see the countryside, get close to nature when you park and take your time seeing what there is to see instead of flying over it and missing everything. That’s why millions of people choose this form of transportation for their leisure travel, and that’s also why so many people build their lifestyles around RVs. They’re fun, they’re relatively convenient and you can set your own schedule and do what you want to do, when you want to do it. At the end of the day, you can simply relax, have something to eat and get some sleep. You can’t say that about any other mode of travel.

However, traveling via RV can also involve a lot of work. This is especially true if you’re going to tow a smaller vehicle behind that RV so that you can move around more easily after you find a place to park and set up camp. For years, tow bars used for hauling vehicles were heavy, cumbersome, huge and difficult to manage and manipulate properly. They were also complicated to hook up, to disengage and to store. In many cases, people would avoid bringing that second vehicle and either drive their RV or stay put at their camp.

Over time, throughout the RV Industry, products, people’s skills, and business, in general, continue to change. At Demco Products, this is no different. We strive to bring new ideas, products, and designs to the RV marketplace. The award winning Victory Series tow bars from Demco have revolutionized the RV Lifestyle and Experience.

That’s because we took a long, hard look at what people liked about their tow bars and, perhaps more importantly, what they didn’t like. We did whatever we could to make towing easier without sacrificing any of the safety and security that everyone needs when they tow a vehicle behind their RVs. After all, no innovation is worthwhile if you’re sacrificing peace of mind and taking on unnecessary risks. Our Victory Series tow bars achieve the proverbial “best of both worlds” in that we have achieved a high level of innovation and advancement while continuing to provide safe and secure towing capabilities.
