  3. FOR SALE: this is the trailer I was using with ARGO. It is a 2000 24' tandem galvanized Majic Tilt trailer. I put it on Craigslist for $1499.00 but will consider a reasonable offer.

  4. ARGO sitting on the new to me Float On trailer. I still have a couple smaller things to do to it but it is basically done and trails down the road very well. Took it the scales twice to get it balanced right and the right weight on the tongue which required me to move both axles back 9".

  5. This is our 5th big boat. We looked for over 4 years for this boat. This is her sitting in the storage yard. We wanted a trailerable, smaller, more economical, more livable boat. And this was it for us.

    tomcat trailers

    The net trailer capacity weight is 8200 and the 24's max running weight is 6800#s so I have room to spare there. I measured the height of the brackets and they vary from low in the back to higher in the front by 2.5". I'm guessing that is normal on all cat trailers as it is that way on both...
