Comanche Joe Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 Now I know trailer hitches are impossible to find for a LWB but lets say I come across one... Would it be possible for me to tow the '87 Searay 23' Weekender i just bought??? (I don't want to have to borrow someone else's truck) Thanks...

JeepcoMJ Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 try it and find out. you'll probably need a brake controller and electronic assist brakes on the rear... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 How much would the trailer and boat weigh? And how far do you plan to tow and at what speeds? Without specifics, my guess is a 23-foot boat on a trailer is probably pushing the envelope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
braden_3 Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 i hauled a 16" aluminum jet boat (1200lbs wet) and i wished i would have had trailer brakes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhorocks Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 i'm with eagle on that. that sounds like 3000 pounds there easy. I used to tow a 24 foot boat with a 4banger ranger but that was .5 mile to the launch ramp and i had to use 4wd to pull back up the ramp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
