Sure. Yeah He has a house on Winnisquam.

With the exception of "Hells Banana", I bet "Beep Beep" is the fastest Banana around.

470hp on a bracket....ye haaa!

That would be a sweet Banana to own.

Oh it was a fun ride! Not everyday you get to take a test ride with an ex racer!

Fruitta,

Dude, your gonna love your trailer.

I just dragged mine from my Brothers house to Portsmouth. Very very nice.

My boat now looks 15 years younger.

Re: Finally got a trailer
 

Glad to here that. Which boat was on it?

The White one...

Re: Finally got a trailer
 

Got back from Florida, Sunday at 7:30pm! Your right Chris the new trailer is sweet! And Tim was a great guy to deal with.

I was wondering how I can adjust my trailer so its close to right before I swap this weekend? Also could you tell me what height to put the bow stop at?

Thanks,
Adam

Bow stop can only go one of two places on that trailer in order to fit the Banana hull, it all depends on how heavy your motor is.

Jeb helped me adjust mine.

The winch stand on mine is just inside where the two aluminum I beams come together. This was great with out the motor.

Last night I mounted the motor to the bracket and now the nose is too light.

You should have 10% of total weight on the tongue to be safe on the road.

Right now I have about 3% so I will need to move the stand forward to just in front of where the I-beams come together.

As for the winch itself, I will measure it tomorrow.

Did you get the forward bunks?

How was the trip.

Congrats on the upgrade.

I guess I had the coolest trailer for a few months anyway... :D

Re: Finally got a trailer
 

The trip wasn't to bad. Lots of driving for three days, but not bad. Almost took out the front of some snowbirds Lexus in New York! He decided he wanted to drive right into the side of the trailer while merging. But I noticed it before he hit it and all was good.

Yes, I got the forward bunks, Posi-lubes, discs on both axles, radial tires, and a spare tire with mount and hub.

Pretty much the same as yours except its the 24-26' model with 6,000# cap.

Towed very nice at 80 - 85 the whole way home from Florida.

New trailer is just flat out awesome!!! Motor wouldn't start when we went to switch trailers and it still loaded easier than the old one did when I could use the motor. Just like you said very minor adjustments needed and then it fit like a glove!
