yup, the bay in the ski locker.
last thought - have you tried hooking it up to your Q8?
I don’t think the Q8 is an option for us. The commander is a perfect vehicle to beat up, surfboard racks/beach/lake vehicle in the summer, snowboard carrier/mountain vehicle for the winter.
I was able to move the boat back on the trailer today with some good results. Trailer and boat with half a tank of fuel was 5000 pounds. Started out with 536 pounds, 10.75% on the tongue.

Left rear is a little light, so I might shift some weight around in the under seat compartments and put more of the heavy items on the left rear corner.
Took it on a short, 6 mile highway drive and it seem to pull much nicer. Definitely helped out the sagging issue by a little over an inch measured at the wheel well, but I plan on putting bags on the commander to get it to sit level. You can definitely tell that it’s light on the front axle on the commander when going over bumps/steering in the wet.
