Hello all, I bought myself a 13' sport with no trailer. I do have a bunk trailer that is for my 18ft bowrider that I would like to use to transport home my new family addition. Is this going to be possible or do I have to come up with another plan.
Oh ya 9 hour drive home.....


Thanks for any advice

Ian

Just tie the boat down well and you shouldn't have a problem. I am sure you can lower the hoist on the trailer to fit the new whaler's bow height. Then just make sure the boat is all the way forward, adjust your bunks and then strap her down. I don't see an issue at all. Good luck and congratulations!!!

Hey John,

I would be interested in your 13 ft trailer but the drive from Toronto to Washington will be long enough without going via Florida.

Thanks

Ian
