oops, I now think that my transom tie-down straps are not strong enough. I'll be making a change..... and putting a different front safety chain set-up in the front.

In this case the lifted truck probably made things better! That boat would've slid farther if the truck was lower. |

Re: Towing rule #1: Use tow straps!!!
Anyone got good pics of a proper strap setup. My bow eye is not big enough to put another strap pulling towards the rear of the trailer.

Re: Towing rule #1: Use tow straps!!!
really hate seeing that chain on the cleats and hanging over the transon. did they lift the boat up off the trailer and back or just drag back?

If he only remembered to put the "New" trailer pin in... :(
I think this would have kept it from sliding. Slide the pin through the custom mount on the bottom of the trailer and lock it into the receiver on the bottom of the boat... Ah, what do I know? Looks like it would work on paper.... :drink: :D :D |
