Best avenue to find a Cat 22 1987-1995 is out of state. Fla to UT. Can't find a truck rental with one way. Uhaul and Enterprise don't allow towing anything other than their trailer. Sure leaves those of us trying to find this boat nationally other than UShip.
Driving 34 hours on way and back in my personal vehicle is just not an option.
Looking for some shared opinions form those with this same scenario.........................

Could you possibly work out meeting the owner 1/2 way and paying gas? with so many C22's out there UT is as close as you can find for a decent one?

Ryder used to rent trucks you could use to tow someone else's trailer, not sure if they still do, and they have one way rentals.

i drove 3000 miles roundtrip to get our C22 for that same reason..
Halfway back, in a tiny town, the transmission in my old 96 ram died.
I sold the truck and rented a cube van, with a hitch, from Uhaul. Towed the boat the rest of the way home.. One way.

Maybe rent a van instead of a truck. ?
The van was handy for outboard and other gear. I also had tools because i serviced the bearings in the owner's yard, before i towed it home

The uhaul franchise didn't care about the towing
