Baby Got A Ride To The Otc

[Theron]

I bought my boat while she was on the water and she has been there ever senc witch makes things like NewPort,Garibaldy and Neah Bay a bit time consuming and EXCPENCIVE. I wanted a King trailer but man they are expencive they wanted 12K for the one I needed and that was before they modified it to fit a V drive boat and I gotta tell you I was peddling to the bank pretty fast when I saw this in the boat trader for $5000 and I got it for $4700





It was set up for out drives but the entire trailer is u bolted together so it was just a matter of reconfiguring the parts that were already there and moving the axles to the undernieth side of the springs to get the requierd ground clearance
I will try putting her on the trailer for the first time thursday when my boat gets out of the paint shop (gotta have new hull paint if were gonna be on a trailer dont ya know )




all I gotta do know is install my aditional fuel tanks and build my out riggers and I will be ready for the tuna

Looking for a good sand anchor i see the one up front of your boat how does it hold for you on outgoing tide in a large river?

Yknot it works very well it is one size larger than the folks at west marine said I needed for a 28' boat and it has 10' of chain but I camp out on the river once in a while and I have a bigger is better attitude if I am going to turn my back on it so yes it holds the sand very good!!

What kind of paint are you going to use, I'm wanting to trailer more than last summer and I have a similar glass boat/trailer set up. I want to leave it in the astoria harbor and not get algae buildup, but be able to tow it occasionally and not have all the antifouling paint get rubbed off. Appreciate learning what you decided on. Thanks

I have yet to plan an invasion or die gallantly, but I have actually done all the other items on Heinlein's list! Comforting the dying is the hardest though.
