RAP, feel free to add another blank if you need to. I don't want to restrict your vocabulary!

A COUPLE OF MY FRIENDS HAVE BOATS. I KNOW NOT TO FORGET THE PLUG, BUT THANKS. ANYTHING SPECIFIC I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE V20 COMPARED TO OTHER BOATS?

Re: trailer size?
 

BR...is "grease thru a goose" what you had in mind... ;) ;D...

Your boat's gonna RIDE better than any other 20'er compared to other boats...it's heavy, has a deep V and wide bow flair...plenty of room...which motor did you get?...Franco's got a 225 HP I/O that runs like a BANSHEE!!...You are close on that trailer, but if only a short trip to the ramp, shouldn't be a problem, but I would recommend regular maintenance (good tires,Goodyear Marathons if the budget allows, new bearings and seals and grease regularly...)enjoy your boat, learn it and keep us posted, pics if you can... ;) :)...

Don't get in a hurry comin' to the dock... ;) :P...

Re: trailer size?
 

One axle ought to be ok for a short trip. Just make sure you keep the tires / bearings in good shape. And don't forget to tie it down well. Nothing worse than having your boat scattered all over the highway. Anyone ever add an axle to a trailer? That might be a reasonable way to increase the capacity.

Re: trailer size?
 

just my 2 cents worth - dual axle because a 45 mph tow + 1 nail = a bad day - I have to replace my trailer too - I've decided to bite the bullet and go dual axle w/brakes. I live within 10 miles of at least 10 boat ramps - but I want to tow mine to the keys from time to time.

The first time you feel that soft landing hauling a$$ in an easy rolling swell and that sweet bow flare throws the water out 50 ft. on each side is sure to give you that worm and fuzzy feeling inside.

A V20 wont juggle your Nortons!!!

Re: trailer size?
 

THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR THE INFO AND HELP I WILL PUT SOME PHOTOS UP WHEN I PICK IT UP AND ACTUALLY GET IT IN THE DRIVEWAY.


THANKS

Re: trailer size?
 

I have a new loadrite tandam no brakes, and it is great!! Of coarse I pull with a full size truck and the weight of the truck is greater then the boat.

Re: trailer size?
 

WELL I WILL BE PULLING IT WITH A STRAIGHT SIX 4.OL JEEP WRANGLER, THE BOAT WILL WEIGH AS MUCH OR MORE THAN THE JEEP I FIGURE.
