Notice that a bunch of those accidents were caused by fishtailing...
Poor trailer setup with too little tongue weight.

I think as long as you have proper tongue weight, your bow eye is in good shape and a transom strap you'd be fine. But freak, unforeseen things could happen, just gotta pray they don't happen to you.

...living on the Cape in mass, my travel time is limited to 15 minutes in either direction to hit water.. lol. I do not travel very fast. Besides, its strapped in for a roller coaster ride with bow straps, safety chains etc..

Just looked at my bow eye last weekend... Went to remove it and the 34 year old piece of mild steel wellcraft used as a backing plate and it crumbled to dust when I tried to remove it. After removal found that the u bolt was bent and corroded also. So new project for the coming weekend I guess
