new toys
The griswalds are hitting the road for our every other year trip to the Florida Keys.(We used to go every year for a week, but 40% of the cost is getting there & back, so now we go every other year for 2 weeks) I bought a new camera for the adventure & have a new (to me) Garmin 2010C w/ sounder. My old unit is a plotter no charts & i am really looking forward to getting to use this new one it is fantastic.
Coool!!!!!!!!!!   We look like the Beverly Hillbillies with this rig   I will try to keep posting some shots of the V in Paradise

Phat, you guys have a good safe trip. I love that GPS you got there! Nice!
Also, you seem to have everything in order with your trailer - you shouldn't have much worry over a flat tire or 3.

I never had any tire trouble until a couple of years ago. i had Goodyear marathons that came with the trailer. they looked great, lotsa tread, etc. anyway i blew 2 going down, not a big deal, i have everything to do it quick. the bad thing is when i used the spare, i didn't feel comfortable until i had replaced it. so i spent about 3 hours pulling on & off the turnpike hunting one. this way, i have 3 shots in my gun before I have to reload.
i'm sure its overkill i also have 4 spare hubs that are greased & packed with new bearings hope i don't need any of them..........

It pays to be prepared. I trailered about 260 miles last weekend, then had a flat tire in the driveway the next afternoon? Glad it went down at home instead of on the roadside when it was 100*....and yes, I had the spare and tolls to change it out.
