[QUOTE="Crazyboat, post: 424905, member: 21552"] Thanks, my current boat is 18' w 115 pwr, might be selling the shore house and boat so will have to trailer from my main house. I know a smaller boat will give the feel of faster being closer to the water and all. I can store her in my side yard under wraps without a problem. Am even thinking about a Dux style boat, light weight and pretty quick set up. I may yet suck it up and drop down to a 15-25 hp but would like to have the power to get my girls out on occasion. My worry about the weight of the boat is my car only weighs 1,800 lbs. If I have to rig up the bigger car I will, just like to use the hitch I currently have. I'll hit the local ramps in a few days to see how steep they are and what kind of traction I can count on. Any other opinions, I'm open to ideas. [/QUOTE]
