New 200 Select owner with a trailer setup question

[jdanek]

Hi all,

I'm picking up an '06 200 Select this week, 5.0MPI with only 35 hours. It's been stored indoors at a marina, no trailer.

I bought a new Karavan aluminum trailer today and need to have it setup a close as possible before heading out to the marina. For a quick lift-out service the marina charges about $90. If they have to spend any time adjusting the bunks, bow posts, or anything else, the fee climbs to $300 :wow:

Can any 200 Select owners tell me what spacing they have between the trailer's rear bunks? For example mine are currently spaced at 47" between the inside edges.

Any other insight or advice would be appreciated.

Thanks!

HI JD. Just a quick note. In your signature you say the boat has a 4.3 MPI and your post says 5.0 MPI.

Now back to your question. My boat has the bunks located on the begining of the first and second chine. Hope this helps some.

My bunks are spaced 29" apart on inside edges.

I just had a close look at Surfinjoe's pict and noticed he has two bunkes on each side. My Trailer only has 1 bunk on each side.

Mission accomplished... the marina was very patient allowing me to make all the necessary trailer adjustments, and they didn't even charge for the lift operator's time :thumbsup:

Tongue weight is about 380lb (8%) and it handles really well behind my SUV. The winch post was a bit high so Chuck (at First Coast Trailers) cut it down, also no charge.
