Know your ramps...and you'll know your answer. If going all over the place get 4WD for piece of mind and move forward. I tow a Glacier Bay 2670 (about 9K# loaded - think Tomcat) on a Tundra 2WD. Explicitly these means I won't be driving to Denver any time soon...but can hit the entire state...

Just throwing this out there...for $60K what else can you buy? I bought my Glacier Bay 2670 for $28K. 400 hours on 150 HPDI Yamahas. Bought a new trailer for $8500. I looked at a totally redone one - new Zuks, autopilot, trailer, sonars...and I offered $57K. Was outbid at $60K for basically...

JMc FWIW...Sadu did a survey for me on a Tomcat. (Things didn't work out in the long run - my employement situation became iffy, good boat though). I still have the PDF of the survey. Pls advise if you want to see it.

I used Sadu Frehm sadufrehm@gmail.com 561-676-4069 for my survey on a Glacier Bay 2670 - 2 or 3 times (diff boats). I was there when the survey was done and he will answer all your questions. I want to say I paid $500-600 per boat. At the end you'll get a professional document. He's SAMS...

This is going to be true on any boat - but it leaves out the fact that you need to know your local waters as well. When it gets ugly in Tampa Bay people will run the 6' markers versus being out and exposed in the middle of the bay. Wind direction, tide conditions, weight...all come into play...

Thanks for the feedback and makes sense. Boat for intended use. There are some quirks about beam and following seas, but man what a ride. Twice I've been in +25mph winds - once intentional (what is she made of?), once not so much. I'll be purchasing 2 Oceantamer bean bag chairs shortly...

Excellent!! FWIW - I have the 2016 Tundra SR5 and she tows fine on my GB 2670. If memory serves right I do 2200 rpms at 65. Would have to double check. Tow capacity is 10,300#. Pls advise on your thoughts from going from cat back to mono. Right now I have a hard time seeing that happen for me.

My GB 2670 has a spotlight on the bow. When I bought the boat I asked the guy why he painted the bow rail black. "So when turn on the spot light it doesn't shine back." Given my druthers I would like the light on the roof. Below I removed the paint but will be replacing it with plastic-dip.

I solo launch/retrieve a Glacier Bay 2670 - call it 9k pounds 26' somewhat frequently on a Toyota Tundra 2wd 5.7. On a not so good ramp I would want electric over hydraulics.on the brakes...but as it is it works fine. My normal commute to the ramp is 15-25 miles. Always easier with 2 people...

Heck I don't even get 23mpg in my Tundra on the highway doing 55. Looks interesting...I like it.

Yup weed sprayer for me - I sprayer by trailer tires with fresh water every time. $10-15 at harbor freight. Add some salt away if you want.

It's good to be the king... :D

Can't complain on my end... Toyota Tundra 5.8L 2016 18-19 city, 21 hwy, towing GB 2670 9K pounds 8-9mpg. Went back and forth on diesel and the $ were a bit over the top. Happy with what I have.

Like I told my wife..."I can collects boats or I can collect women. Boats seems cheaper to me, but your call." I have a 27' Glacier Bay Cat, 3 kayaks, 1 canoe, 1 paddleboard...

Nicely done!

West Marine to match web prices...more here http://www.c-brats.com/viewtopic.php?t=26192&highlight=

The times they are a changing...I always considered West Marine a "last/emergency option" . From their website... "Won’t Be Beat—Price Match Guarantee We want you to shop with confidence and WE WON’T BE BEAT ON PRICE! If you find a lower price on an identical product (Brand and Model) at a...

Unless you have a newer F150 that has the extra capacity (some will only pull 8K pounds) you'll want to look at a heavy duty truck. The tow package on base units will not be enough. You might get away with it for REALLY short flat tows, but I'm not seeing that happening. That's a lot of boat...
