    I'm not sure there is any way to prepare for 3 flat tires. Did the debris do any other damage to the hull or trailer? Glad you guys made it safely and that the boat ran flawlessly! I've never experience a flat on a trailer - but I have been behind more than one when tires blow - and it's scary from that position. I figure it's even more scary when it's hooked to your own vehicle.

    Hi Nick, I figured the only way to combat 3 flat tires is to have a 6 wheel trailer LOL, either that or a flatbed tow truck following you! No damage to the hull or trailer. But this flat tire business has made me rethink the single axle trailer. Next week I'm calling a buddy of mine who makes boat trailers and see what he'll charge me for a dual axle custom trailer.

    Apart from that, the time away with the missus; from home and work, playing at the lake, was priceless.

    Mark
