Default Re: Trailer Size for 23' Sceptre

Hi Guys, I got a "Baja style trailer" It's pretty much a copy of Florida trailer but way heavier. I went up a size because a bracket is in my future. It would fit a 26 ft boat and I think the GVW is around 8,000 lbs. I have a lot of space so I went wiyh a heavieand little longer tounge.
Upgraded all the lines and brakes.
It's from ABT the only Aluminum boat trailer maker on the west coast. I think it was arround 4k. But it's a monster.
Once I have the boat done I will transfer it to the new trailer and check tounge wieght %. To me thats the most important thing of all. The fuel and fishing supplys stored for a long trip are different after the trip. So I take the scale with me.
This may sound odd to you guys but often I travel over nasty mountain roads.
