I have a 16' Leisure Island pontoon boat with a 25hp Johnson on it. The smallest scissor-lift trailer I could get at T & M Marine in Grand Rapids is one made for 19-21 ft pontoons. The problem is that the motor mount that hangs off the frame fouls one of the three supports on the scissor lift. The end result is that we cannot get all of the pontoon onto the trailer.
What we did last season was slip lumber underneath the pontoon frame so that the pontoon would ride higher. Not the most elegant solution, nor the most stable.
Does anyone here have any suggestions about how I might go about getting a working a combination going? T & M is not the slightest bit helpful, though they were happy enough to take my money for the trailer.
