BR, after towing the 248 home w/my buddies' Chevy 1500 H/D and as a previous owner of a '95 Cherokee that I used to tow Quahog, you are correct in assuming the Cherokee won't get the job done towing a 248! I only went about 15 miles on I95 with the 248 and it is a boat better suited for a slip than a trailer IMO. I'll be selling the trailer that came with the boat as soon as I get it in my slip.

hey CT will your V20 fit the trailer under the 248? My V20 is on a older 24 ft boat trailer maybe you could sell it with it and then sell your V20 trailer for more more alone since several guys on this site are looking for a trailer? just a thought.

Yeah, that's what I thought CT. Buddy of mine has a Grady White gulfstream 23 footer with a Yamaha 250 on bracket and it is a BIG BIG boat. Somewhat comarable to the 248 I would imagine.
Skools, you gonna keep your 248 at EI? Your yard down there got room to keep her or do you have a slip or what? Or are you planning on trailering every weekend?

Gulfstream 23 is a 9'3" beam compared to the 8' beam of the 248.

skool, the trailer under the 248 is MUCH newer than the one under Quahog, so I think I'll get more for the bigger trailer by itself than I will for the one under Quahog. Plus the one under Quahog is all set up for her.
By the way, why hasn't anyone bought Quahog yet?!!! >:( I thought this site was full of people looking for bracketed V-20s!? You can be using her over the long weekend!!!
