I'd post a picture but the website won't cooperate.

Boat and trailer should be right around 14000, not sure on tongue weight, surge brakes. I have a 5" rise on the ball that is not in that picture. It actually tows pretty well and is well balanced.

+1 to the above. I towed my 32' see ray over 75 miles to get it home (just for the trailer lol) that is a fat boat measures 11'9" at its widest point. Heck didn't even know it was there until lane changes. I bet that dmax drags yours so well you often forget it's there as well.

man, here in PA, there are never ending construction zones and "cattle chutes". I'd have a nervous breakdown towing something that wide. Last summer I was towing my boat thru a cattle chute and I blew a tire. Had to keep going till I got to an emergency pull off area. My boat is 8'6 and I pucker sometimes as it is!!

2016 Ford F-250 4x4 6.7 Diesel and 2008 Formula Fastech 353. I will post pictures as soon as I take some. Truck tows boat very well and boat and trailer are about 13,000 pounds.
Trailer has electric/hydraulic disc brakes on 2 of the 3 axels and that works really well.

alindquist Have you checked how much weight you have toward the bow (tongue weight) Seems boat might be a bit to forward. Could help a bit towing if you level trailer and balance properly on trailer/boat. Sir you have a lot of guts. Its amazing how most formulas look like the size of a house.
