Well it was not me, I am in Cape May with the entire Schultz Clan, Ozzie Lee and I found a bait and tackle shop in Barnegat Bay area that was named FishBones, he spelled it wrong with a Z
I like the boat though!

Doing some sight seeing this past week and when I saw it, I thought of you right away. I think that is a Privateer. Either way it does double duty for lobster and snapper.
On another note:
I never knew they made Yamaha's in white. Several nice species of boats at the local marina had tripple 300's in white. Nice machines to look at. Way outta my league.

She towed well,no issues, she is blowing grease out of the back two hubs.
Think I may be filling them too much. They should not be over heating as the fronts are the ones with the brakes.
I do not like towing a big boat anyhow, so hopefully after this trip home at the end of the week, fingers crossed, I will put her in her home slip and not tow again until a more substantial trailer is purchased next year.
This one is not sized right across the board in my opinion.

Line up guys...that trailer may be a tad under-sized for Willy's 23' Vector, but IMHO it'd be perfect for a typical V-20!!...working brakes and BRAND NEW Maxxis radials...woo, woo!!...

I'd jump in line myself, but after this weekend's development, I won't be needing a boat trailer...

weel, I am definately in the market for a trailer. The brakes on the one I have don't work. Puckering all the way to the dock is not good.
