If the boat is anywhere near the way I sold it to him, this is a deal.

I can't believe its still for sale!!!

Maybe it is just me but I wouldn't want to be barrelling down the interstate with that trailer under that weight load.

For some reason it looks way to small to me. Might just be the angle, but it doesnt look up to the task of that weight.

How long ago did you sell this? Any issues to look for?

How heavy is that boat, ie what would it take to tow, more than a 3/4 ton?

Thanks

It doesn't matter what happens. There just aren't any buyers out there.

There are so many deals out there now, I just can't decide whick one to pulle the trigger on.

Nice looking boat though.

I had a trailer like that under my Cafe and I never had problems with it. It flexed a little but worked fine. And only two axles.


Hell of a deal BTW....

You'd be crazy to tow that thing with a 3/4 ton in my opinion.

You'll be pushing 14-15k by the time you are loaded up. I think they were 9600 dry - add 1500 in fuel, 500 in "other stuff", 1500 for the trailer, other small stuff that adds up quick (swim platform, hydraulic steering, tie bar,), coolers of beer and cheap hooch.....It's a lot of weight for my F350 dually, I can't imagine it behind much less - that doesn't even broach the ever present insurance/liability piece of it.

I am sure some people will tell you you'll be fine, but from my experience - I wouldn't consider it.

Kind of what I was figuring, but wasn't sure on the weight. I'm thinking a Bullet is as big as I could/should go. My 2500 is a gasser too, so I'm limited by the powertrain more than truck, but I will be regearing to get max power.

Sold about 3 years ago. No issues with it at that time. Due diligence with motors, leakdown, compression tests would be recommended. Unless he sunk boat or wrecked it, there is not issues with glass - still shined with no stress cracks. I towed with Dodge 2500 diesel with NO problems. Towed to Florida many times. Trailer is a south florida and it is plenty of trailer for boat but don't know what type of shape it is in now. As I said when that boat got me home from the Bahamas in 8 to 10's (yes they were), it is a dam good boat.
