    Winter Storage/Cover with Radar Arch . . .

    Ted, the other alternative is for you to bring the boat down here and simply not subject your boat to snow load :D A bud has a slip at the Sarasota Yacht Club, however his VP pod has water in the gear box, so he is on the hard for a few months.

    Proper air pressure for PWC trailer

    Proper air pressure for PWC trailer

    your old tires most likely had a lower load range than your new tires, hence the lower pressure. nothing wrong running your tires to max, however your trailer will bounce a bit more if not loaded enough running too little pressure and you risk damaging a tire from overheating the sidewalls due...
