As far as towing you should be fine. House boats are slow but watch the chop while towing. If the rope is too short it can force the nose down crossing a roller.
Only $6.72 as of this morning! For us it is more about making sure we don't have to go into the marina to fill up. We have about 400 gallons on board for the week that has to supply the engines, generator, and boats (Mojo, Supra SE, and SeaDoo). Any gas we can save that isn't associated with play time needs to be saved, though my brother in law refuses to tow the SE. It's OK though since we use the SE and the SeaDoo to scout out the beaching locations and reserve the spot. Everything gets towed back though and I am always hopeful that I will get the Mojo back on the trailer with about 5 gallons left in the tank. Last year it was bad enough with my $1,300 gas bill at the marina after a week. Really not looking forward to over $2,000. I am being told that if gas is much more expensive, we may keep the houseboat boat in the marina and enjoy a slightly different kind of houseboat trip. I have never minded staying in the marina though. The chances of a moment of terror go way down, though the opportunities for smooth water are certainly much lower.
