response to the question re: Pacific Trailer
Bob, I received my M15 on a Pacific Trailer and while I have nothing to compare it to, I would say I'm generally satisfied. I have not had a need to extend the trailer tongue, I did practice doing it in the driveway and it was very easy to manage. I am not sure when I would want to do that, maybe when in a launch area which was pretty shallow. The only problem I am experiencing with the trailer is that it vibrates when you're running down the highway. At first I thought my truck tires were out of alignment and had them balanced. Truck does real well now but when I pur the trailer back on I got a very rough ride above 60mph. Don't know what the fix for it is, go slower I guess. ===== Time for a cool change!

Sandra, You might try shifting some weight to the bow of the boat. Where is your engine when you are towing? Shifting to the bow may help.

The trailer tires need to be balanced too. They will wear out quickly if they are not, and would create such a vibration when towing. howard On 8/29/03 12:50 PM, "Seawitch" <seawitchlj@yahoo.com> wrote:
