Welcome to the board.

Trailer, do your self a favor and OVERSPEC.

That means buy a trailer one size up from what you think you need. Bigger tires, axles, etc.

A SB 30 w/ tabs, etc...5800 lbs sounds too low w/ gas and equipment. Go for at least a 6500 lb trailer.

Good Luck w/ the boat.

krakmeup,

It’s TMANN I still can’t believe you sold your 18 but if you had to the SuperBoat is the way to go. I love the looks and it seams to perform great per what everyone says. Great purchase!!! Now get it down here so we can see it fly by us....

Thanks again all -
TMANN - don't even start on me about the Donzi - my eyes get watery, it was a very hard decision, but I simply don't have the room. I will own another Classic one day, no doubt.

Thanks wannabe on the trailer advice, I'm leaning that way as well, but want to find some hard numbers - John says the vessel is 4500 'rigged', so I'm not sure, but I hear ya on the oversizing of tires and hardware.

Miarageman - John is cool once you get him to open up a little, we're having a blast now, and he's been real straightforward; send me PM when you get closer and I'll tell you how I did the financing, it does take a little work but is do-able.

Pictures will begin asap, in the menatime I'll try to pacify myself on our slo-go cruiser (now being well known as the anchor boat !) and bum rides from my buddies.

4635lbs w/hp500 efi. APBA scale, maybe a little bit of gas. I think I have a 7000lb trailor, does that sound right?

Awesome, thanks Fastedy - this is exactly the kind of info this forum is so good about. I will firm up the trailer deal tomorrow and put a deposit down, then it's just waitin' time!
