32 B ramp launching?
 
I have a 32 that is almost done. The boat is a bravo boat on a skater trailer. To test I am going to need to ramp it in.

How deep of a ramp do I need?
What is the best way to rinse the trailer to slow rusting?
Thanks
Steve

Get in touch with Paul(TZrider), he had a 32B and ramped it here in Pompano, I have his # if you need it. Lets see some pics of the boat:drink:

hopefully we will have Steve's boat running tomorrow. We are pretty close to getting it finished.

Steve, which one did you end up getting? Post up some pics. Good luck with the lauch and sea trial.

That's quite a rinse cycle you describe there :party-smiley-004:

I think steve is going to be really happy with his boat. We did a quick run on lake seminole, and we were pretty impressed with how well the boat accelerates. No top end numbers yet due to a bad water pump impeller, but I will say it jumped up to 108 very quickly and was climbing. I still think the boat is going to run close to 120.

Oh Yeah! I'm guessing SS brake lines & SS Kodiak Disc brakes too!
