Skip on the trailer, use the $ for something special for the Mrs or the
boat, or both, and simply deal with trailer issues when or if they arise.

That's an interesting question.

I had a custom trailer made for my two Contenders and used them
basically as storage trailers and for hauling the boats during the
summer for wash down.

Where did you have those trailers made, Tom? By whom, in other words.


Loadrite at NorthEast Industries in Dudley, MA.


Thomas Francis is my brother's name. How could that happen, unless you are
he? But he lives in Mass.


So did I.

Interesting data on names:

1 - Thomas consistently ranks in the top 25 of first names in the
United States (by decade) until recently - like, starting in 2000
where it dropped to 35th and is the 11th most popular surname in the
United States.

2 - Francis is the 485th most common surnames in the United States and
is (or was) in the top 50 first names in the United States among
women.

3 - The most likely last name first and first name last confusion
combines Thomas and Francis.

The things you learn on a newsgroup huh?
