Saw an Arctic Cat 500 auto in the Fargo airport and it was holding up at the ball hitch a 23 ft. Master Craft ski boat with a V-8 engine. An airport employee said the dealer uses it to pull the boats in and out for display. Now I know what you are thinking, how could he ever stop that package going down hill? Well folks this is Fargo N. D. there aren't hardly any hills!! Thought that this may address some of those previous posts about "is the hitch strong enough?" This Cat is a BRUTE!!
