buying a seacraft

trailer brakes make a huge difference. I tow my 73 Tsunami with my Cherokee (not the Grand). My experience has been the same, although I do sometimes need 4wd to get up the ramp (our ramp sucks). My original trailer had no brakes. I pulled it from MD back up to CT like that. Not a fun trip. I'm still not comfortable at highway speeds. It can start to sway if you get to aggressive and it takes some work to keep it under control but around town it's adequate. I keep the boat in the water all season though. I wouldn't do it as a trailer boat. Pushing your luck that often is likely to cause a problem at some point as you become more comfortable and less careful.
