well considered thoughts to the readers of rec.boats:

Interesting that this topic came up as I'm preparing to trailer this
weekend. I recently had new tires installed on the trailer after having
a blowout and noticed last night that the weight capacity listed on the
tire was 1760 lbs. I have a 1996 Glastron with a 3.0 volvo penta and a
quick google search lists similar newer models as having a dry weight of
2315lbs w/3.0. Is the tire not rated properly for my capacity ? I do
recall that they are 15" tires. Thanks Larry

Trailer for my next boat.......

Planning to buy a waterlogged, 25-year-old Grand Banks, eh?
