[quote jscottphisher]I have a 2004 Lund 16ft 10in Alaskan and with the trailer it weighs about 2,000 lbs
according to the manual. The trailer
weight is pretty heavy and I am wondering if it makes sense to move the boat back on the trailer 4 to 6 inches to shift more weight over the axle. The weight on the trailer hitch does affect the steering on my truck. Would moving it back affect the way the trailer follows and trails ?
Would it cause the trailer to fish-tail?
Any thoughts would help.[/quote]
A boat that light shouldn't be giving you any issues unless someone really goofed when setting up the trailer, what are you towing it with?
