I recently bought a 9' Boston Whaler and it is a PITA to load and unload from my truck bed. I want to buy an old jet ski trailer for it, but am concerned since the boat only weights a couple hundred pounds with the outboard I am going to have issues.
no issues bouncing on the highway. although my trailer does weigh a bit empty, since its for a 16ft boat. the only time it bounces is going slow through some parts of base and hitting pot holes. other than that, it tracks great and i dont even notice it back there untill people start trying to merge on the freeway and i have to get around them so they dont drive into it... crazy drivers.
