After just driving 3000 miles in 4 days I beg to differ on your thought about driving at night. Especially after I had to work on the trailer.

That would have sucked at night and I might not have seen it.

I stress so bad when I tow, so I would rather tow at night with less traffic. I carry everything under the sun just in case.

I'm the opposite.

I plow people out of my way.

Steve, what's up with the trailer?

I had a nice little "adventure" with mine today too.

Just the dust cap off the hub, no biggie, but I did have to take the wheel off to tap it back on.

Note to self: Find a socket large enough to carry with me that I can use to tap the cap back on, in case it happens again.

Adventure?

I have a little piece of a 2x4 that is just small enough to fit through the hub opening for tapping them back on.



I tried to put in Monsoon on the Chickahominy River a few miles up river from Mark's place. Seems as though the full moon last night created the lowest of low tides at the exact moment I was trying to launch. It didn't go so well. Mark is able to use that ramp at any tide, but apparently not THIS low tide today. I had to pull it back up the ramp with the boat about 12" back on the trailer, and wait a couple hours.

One engine overheating. (simple fix)
Hit a stump yesterday with the Mini-Hawk. (wanted a new prop anywayz.)
And now a trailer cluster today.

I hope I'm finished with these "issues" for this season.
