Wow...Seeing that big boy on a trailer is an impressive site!

Nice looking rig.


Thanks! We just purchased the boat this past August, and had the trailer made for it. We like to, on occasion, do a trip away from our home lake, so we needed something solid, and that's what we got. We also had to get her home from Virginia to Illinois.. :mrgreen: Only pain in the rear part is having to remove all the stuff off the arch to move her. She's right at 14' on the trailer, and with the radar, and mast light, would be more like 16'.. LOL

If I had your rig, I'd have to get a longer driveway! :D

LOL, yea, I need all of the street, and the neighbor across the streets driveway to get mine actually in my drive, and, once there, could never leave it hooked up, because my truck would be in the middle of the street.. I don't like having it there very long, because she is nose down on the drive, because our drive has a slope to it, and I can't get her high enough on the nose to get her level.. The moaring cover does a pretty good job of keeping her dry, but in a really good rain, enough water does get in and run to the front to have it pooling in the cockpit..

Diemaker and blue dragon, I was at the storage facility today to put a few things aboard my boat. Just wanted to let you guys know that all is well with your boats. The new doors are up also and it's much tighter than last year.
