Well I spent the day fish up the creek with Grandson and doing some
boat riding with "our" 1965 12' Sea King & 7.5 Eska, caught a few
crappie on spinner bait??, and a few catfish on treble hooks and
stinky stuff...forgot to take the camera but We did have a good time
and I only burnt 3 qts of gas all day. One thing about a 12'er there
hard really hard to **** from!.

I you trailer far, I would change the tire/wheel combo to at least 12".
The fenders are usually adjustable for a good fit. Those little tires
are spinning at 50,000 rpms at highway speed!
