Re: New Mark II clasic
Couple things I've learned, some the hard way...
Make sure the transom rests on the back of the trailer bunks solidly.
Bunks should go on the inside of the speed tubes, not the outside.
Make sure to rinse the inside of the hull after a trip, so the debris flushes out the drain plugs and let all the water run out or it gathers in the dip in the hull at the bow and grows moss.
Under inflation causes the motor to fall forward and puts nasty kinks in the tubes.
Don't forget the tie down strap at the stern. These things fly when you hit a bump at freeway speed.
Secure the battery and fuel tank because they slide around on the floorboards and they make easy targets for those inclined to remove them without permission.
303 coated hull and wet bunks makes for a sliding good time.
Oh yeah, if you've got any exposed bolts that you are concerned might cause damage, get plastic wire connectors and screw them down on to the bolt. They come in all sizes and colors and work great. If it's a bit loose, then squirt some silicone adhesive inside first.
