1) Hitch is on the car 2) new tires on the trailer plus a new spare 3) wheel bearings repacked 4) tongue weight checked 5) boat tied securely down 6) new clutch on car, new brakes 7) trailer lights work 8) new safety chains (actually cables) on trailer 9) registration tabs on the trailer Did I miss anything? I still have to even the air pressure in the car tires, and put the mast on the holder (but can't do that until it is out of the garage.) I have to register the boat in Washington (I think, never got an answer to that.) Any of you M15 owners who can tell me if I do? It is going to stay there, not come back to California. And once I get there, need to get a new winch cable and check the lines to see what needs replacing. Bobbie
