Yep! She’s been nothing but sweet to me and when I need her she can be a bit spicy and drag anything I need..
Boy! This thread could go south pretty quick!:oops: LOL

Here my lovely wife is showing us how 5’ 1” gals get the SUP’s off the roof. So for the record 4 SUP’s 4 paddles, 2 windsurf masts, booms, and sails. It is the adventure pig.

Okay you guys have me a little nervous with all of these big trucks. I am driving 4 hours this weekend to pickup my new C22. I have a Honda Pilot with a towing capacity of 4,500. I'm good to go right?

I’ve used a 2007 Toyota Sienna for a 80 mile trip twice a year with no issues. Basically flat an level. I have done this for five years.

My "new" vehicle is my '93 2wd 5.7L Suburban with a newly rebuilt transmission with beefier aftermarket parts. It was already optioned with a tow package.
I only tow from the yardspace to the crane twice (hopefully) every season. :redface:

"Old Blue", My old Dodge Cummins powered work truck, pulls my 351 Oceanis with no problem.
Seems adequate for short distances in flat terrain but I just cannot picture a safe situation where you can trailer a long trip on the Interstate at 70MPH.

Now there is a trailer sailor! Bet you need the tongue extender to put her in .
I have been sitting here for about 2 hours trying not to comment on this but I think I will just keep all those thoughts to myself!:oops:

Ya, we don't have interstates here, the max speed on my route is 70km, brakes on all 3 axles, not a problem in the world!
