In preparation for spring sailing, I've decided to learn how to tow my "new to me" boat. So far I've called my dad up to move it around, as I've never towed any remotely close to the size of an H16.

Any tips for the first time tower?

Also, is it harder to tow with a manual transmission? Another thing that I've decided to learn how to do this winter when I find a beat up little truck to tow the boat with.
