I thought I was the only one who had used a canoe for a dingy. I used mine last year when I leased a 36 Willard for an extended period.
It never occurred to me to tow the canoe- we always manhandled it in and out of the boat. It's not light, maybe 60 lbs., but it's slippery (rotomolded plastic, like a kayak) and easy to drag over the gunwales.
Lifting the bow sounds like the best way to tow.
