The weight on the tongue should be about 8% of the gross trailer weight, and then the trailer should

I found out my pontoon boat trails a lot better if the bow is pitched
down. I think it gives me more down force and sticks it to the road
better (basically increasing tongue load) without actually increasing
the weight.
It tows straight at interstate speeds.


Did you ever think of putting one of these on the ass end of that pontoon boat?
