[QUOTE=thisistank;4918324]man, you are asking all the questions I can’t answer right now lol. I can’t remember if it’s leaf or torsion. I think leaf spring. 6 or 7k rated axles I believe, again can’t remember. Trailer was built for the boat. It’s a Pacific trailer. And the EOH system was just upgraded last year before I had the boat brought back from LOTO. upgraded to disc brakes and all new hubs before the haul out and they had to put a new EOH system to manage the disc brakes. I just can’t remember wtf system it is.

My myco trailer was also built for my boat back when Mark McManus was a sales manager @ Cigarette ....reason I ask is, (I believe) my steel trailer has (3) 3500 lb. axles, seems to be bear minimal for my 35' Mistress. if you account for the boat Approx. weight 8,500 lbs. plus, if full 225 gal. fuel tank = 1,575 lbs....both together that more than trailer capacity. I've trailered this boat from Punta Gorda, Fl. to N.J. with electric brakes, but I'm over edge numbers wise.

Whelp, worked out details with Adrenaline Trailers. Gonna go ahead and have it completely sand blasted and pained while it’s there.

fresh rerig, new merc 90hp, electronics, paint, railings, cabinets etc etc. should make
for a fun little fisher for the kids and harbor cruiser.
