Default Front Hitches to Park Boat

Curious to see what other people out there are using for a front hitch to park a boat on the side of the house. Yard is mostly flat with a slight incline and would be much easier than my truck. Will be parking an 18 ft center console.

Thanks!

2003 DS IQ with 6 inch lift.

Jake's LT lift has the 2in receiver built into it. I move all kinds of sh1t with it. Tongue weight is the only limitation tend to lose traction on the rear wheels if ya hook up to something to heavy.

Curious as well since I feel like the hitch that attaches to the rear seat kit offers no support.

I only have the regular Jake's 6 inch lift. I have seen very limited options (ebay and another site). Curious as to if people have had success moving their boat around with the front hitch as well.

Here is one of the options I have found - https://www.ebay.com/itm/Club-Car-DS...4AAOSwEetV~F8j

Brush guard with built in hitch for DS.

Agreed two bolts seem a little less than ideal.

i'd think the limiting factor would be the lightweight front suspension, not the 2 bolts
rear suspension is made to handle most of the battery load, 2- 300lb golfers and 2 golf bags
