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!.

My 1st Mate,

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!



It's 3 miles to the creek and lake, 26 round trip to the river,
45-50mph, I always add grease & do the shake test and check them for
heat at the stops, But I do think this winter I'm going through all
wheel bearings on all trailers. that's always good advice... Thanks
and if I move to Florida I would buy some 12" combos for the long
trip...someday I will be there. What I need is a bumper hitch for a
540i I to pull my tri hull...is that red necking or what?
A bumper hitch would be redneck. Get a real hitch!
