What a dummy!

Anyone with a lick of sense knows that you use bunks for an aluminum boat.

(an exception might be for the very thick hulled welded variety)



Rollers on your Legends, Lunds, PrinceCrafts etc could deform the hull.





Does yours oilcan?

Certainly not!

You're lucky. Most thin skinned aluminum boats do.

Why would you even consider anything "Hank" says here...his only
interest is in trying to get a rise out of posters he doesn't like. It's
a lot more fun to just ignore him. Hell, he hasn't had a boat for a
long, long time.

What is 'oilcan'? Is this something unique to aluminum boats?

I don't dislike Donnie. He's a kool little guy. But, I can't say his
selection of a role model was a good choice.
You don't know about my most recent boat?.......Good.

If you're ever around the west side of Charlottesville, the Misty Mountain Camp Resort is a great
campground. Probably the best manicured I've ever seen.

That's a legitimate, boating related question. Many, if not the
majority, of aluminum boats "oil can".

Hey thanks John. I might be able to use this place I like travelling 81
vs 95 north of Richmond.
You know, Harry is like a mushroom. He is most comfortable in the dark
and sitting in manure.

I'm beginning to wonder if he's splashed his new boat yet. Like you
said, pretty near all lightweight aluminum boats have that annoying
oilcan problem.

Well, here it is, my new rig... well the boat is a year old this month
and
the Highlander is almost 3 months old.

I have it on a fairly level spot to measure how level the trailer is
with
a
2" drop receiver.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...ps59c5dd8b.jpg

D'oh... I need to reverse the draw bar so the hitch is 3/4 inches high.
I'm struggling with that because I don't have a 1 & 9/16" or 1 & 5/8ths
wrench to hold the ball steady while I remove the big 1.5" nut and it's
locking washer.

I tried my water pump pliers with duct take over the jaws to protect the
chrome but it's too slippery.

Guess I'm off to Princess Auto to buy a big cheap Chinese adjustable
wrench.


------------------

Why buy cheap wrench? Use a pipe wrench and good for pipes later. As
to
the ball, get one of these types and forget about greasy pants.
http://www.etrailer.com/Balls/Andersen/AM3662.html

Wonder how long that nylon will last?


----------------

I have had one on my hitch for probably 6 years. Only bad spots are nicks
where I backed in to the coupler as it was too low. I have towed
thousands
of miles with the ball. 4400# rig. I tow to Vancouver Island every
couple
years and that is about 1200 miles to Tofino or Telegraph Cove. Wife is
happy that we do not get grease on the clothes when the trailer in
unhitched
and ball is still installed.

Interesting that it doesn't wear out! I take my receiver out when I'm
not using it, not so much because of grease, but my shins!


------------------

Some places we go, I drop the trailer after launching. So stinger is
installed with no trailer hooked up.

Mine does not oilcan. Is on a bunk trailer with UHMW plastic bunks. But my
aluminum boat is 3/16" on the bottom. Lots of the newer ones are now 1/4"
6031 T-6 bottoms.
