New trailer, all set up

[rdfish1]

Thought I would share pics of the new trailer. It took about 45 minutes to tweak the bunks and other settings but I think I got it perfect. Tongue wt is 100 lbs w a full tank of gas and it seems to load and unload nicely. The previous triton was a little small

Looks good.

I have the same trailer for my TX300. My only complaint is the ratchet straps get jammed once in a while. Other than that, no complaints. It's a great trailer. Nothing else like a Triton.

Nice job! BTW, you can get tie downs with stainless steel hardware. I've been using mine for about 4 years now with absolutely no rusting.

Well, I Called Tuesday to put insurance on it and was told I'm good. Called this morning given the hurricane and she said, oh, it looks like the coverage go suspended given the hurricane. Nice.

I now have the ski, my Boat and two cars stuffed in the garage trying to protect them. Looks like we are in for a mess overnight and during the morning and day Friday. Haven't been through a hurricane since 2004'when we got hit with three hurricanes in 6 weeks.

Im in the biz, most insurance carriers lost binding authority tuesday ranging from 9am until about 6pm and we're not expected to get it back for a couple more days, then lose it again for a few more days if the storm makes a u-turn.

homes usually get blocked statewide, cars/boats usually are county by county, at least with my carriers.

whoever answered the phone on that should have known, and most definitely should have called you back when it couldn't be done, its pretty dam clear when you click "bind" and the system says "nope"

trailer looks great.

Good luck! We've got our fingers crossed for you up here in Canada.

Thank you. Up and alive,most I'll have power which was totally unexpected. Just got the report. Storm dropped to cat 3 and moved slightly east. When I went to bed, models showed 90 mph winds, that same model has been revised down to 50. That's a huge difference. Still ugly, wet, windy and some risk of tornados, falling trees, power but I'm feeling pretty fortunate, and happy for our state. Coastal folks less lucky but still relative. Better than forecasted

yip, the track was pretty favorable for florida, (so far) if at any point it had jiggled east over the past 12 hours it would have been much worse for some of the populated area's.
