Wow nice truck! You should have no problems trailering with that setup.

I pull mine with an F-250 with a V-10. They love the gas, but, it won't break A sweat pulling that boat.

May look Hillbilly with all of the tenders behind the boats but there are several million dollars worth of boats in this particular raft up! That is our annual Labor Day Circle Cruise where we these days have about 30 boats rafted in a near perfect circle and have had up to 73 boats in the good economy.

I never said it looked hillbilly....just reminded me of the song, how they are all rafted in a circle .. That's the best times.

Previous owner,,,, I`m going to keep the name for fear of the "bad luck " from changing it.. I like the name, it fits well for weekend stays.
