Re: Let's see your Tow rigs with your boat!
Yeah, I was torn as to which thread to post it. But here, we can speculate as to whether the caster under the hitch is DOT-rated for freeway speeds

I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that this setup is just for launching?

Re: Let's see your Tow rigs with your boat!
I wouldn't even want to do that. I'd be worried that thing could actually pull the boat back up the ramp without floating away.Titaniumboy wrote: ↑Mon Aug 22, 2022 3:54 pm I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that this setup is just for launching?

Yeah, I agree. Even if it is just for launching the whole setup is beyond sketchy.

Ooh, I like the hardtop on the boat, and the load guides on the trailer. I should look into load guides for my EZ Loader.

Thank you! The trailer is ok, already have lighting issues with one of the brake lights. Not sure if it is corrosion on the plug or what.

Re: Let's see your Tow rigs with your boat!
What sort of connectors did the trailer manufacturer use under the trailer? Did they use any of these?
