Any idea, what the boat weighs in at?
 












not really sure, but i think the boat might be about 2500 , and the motor, about 6 something, it's a 225 ,
the boat is a Lund Baron Magnum, 225 Optimax Mercury , ,,

and i didn't even use 4 low,,,,,,
 






Glad you didn't loose your bumper or ball. Nice pic!
 






Have any serious hills to climb? How'd she feel?
 






I have pulled a 26ft Boston Whaler with twin 225s with my 91.The trailer had surge brakes which is all that kept her from running me down but the truck had no problem moving the load .I would'nt make a habit of it though.
 






there was a kind of tense minute on one downhill stretch , but it had surge brakes too, so it was okay ,
the old 4.0 ohv has over 300,000 km, on her, but it had enuff to tow it, i just had to shut off the overdrive,
the back end was a bit soft , but that was a sizable load for an Ex,, , ,
