How many feet is this boat? Im currently looking into buying a 18-20 ft bowrider, Would my 02 1500 Silverado have trouble hauling a boat this size?

[PetersMarineService]

@MoeBoater This boat is a 23 foot Baja. Towing weight is around 7,000 lbs. Check with your dealer to see what your truck capacity is. Thank you for the comment.

Our car can't back the trailer in that far underwater because the car would have to go under too. Is it ok to stop the boat at the end of the trailer and winch it on the trailer? Please answer. Thanks.

[PetersMarineService]

@kingcrumpet Yes, it is fine to winch the boat onto the trailer. It just takes a little more effort. Thank you for the comment.

Did you have the car in 4WD

[PetersMarineService]

@Gtaking78 On this day we did not have the truck in 4WD. If the ramp was wet and slimy that may have been required.

Good idea to use park after the emergency brake. Less dollars for trans repairers! Smooth job.

good video. I trailer a 22' triple pontoon, it took a long time to figure how to get it on straight. It is still very challenging when the wind is blowing.

[DaMossBergBoss]

@MoeBoater hell no bro, your truck could tow a 26ft sea ray ok? so yea if you did it would be no problem.

I always use a security line on the bow hook as well in just in case the winch line fails... better safe than sorry!
