LOl at destroyer, that's an hour you could be fishin' man!
I hear y'all about the safety factor, although I've towed mine all the hell over with no worries.
My solution is I tow with a land cruiser, all time 4wd, 4 wheel disks on 32 inch tires, and it weighs a cool 3 tons. You know the boats back there, but it obeys the truck.

1st wheel work progress.....
Removed disk brakes, disassembled bearings and disk from spindle, sanded cast iron section, then sprayed with Eastwood Textured Rust Encapsulator paint. After couple of days dry time, top coated with Rust-Oleum metallic in grey.

Once the new brake pads and rear bearing units arrive, I'll re install, check, and move on to next wheel. Will post pics.....eventually.

Hmmm... Attwood drum brake =59.99 (without the drum) per wheel. 4 wheels x $60 = $240 x 4 years = $960 Saved = several new fishing rods, reels, tackle, etc., etc. If that's anal then I'm guilty and I'll be anal all the way to the tackle store.

Hell when I was fishing I was lucky to wash the boat once a week after fishing all day then going to sell after it was a 15+ hour day!! There was a day I was walking in the yard to the boat and I said whats that black spot on the rear of the boat?? It was a huge swarm of Flys on some dead bait!, just hooked up went fishing and washed off at sea.
