Subject:Re: can 85 westy pull boat?

Yes?
My 82 diesel to inlline 4 digifant with the diesel gearing pulls my 85 ski
nautique competiion ski boat.  It weighs close to 3000#.  I only drive about
10 miles, and the trailer has tailer brakes.  It pulls it out of the water
ok.

Do any of you tow a fishing boat with a stock 1.9? I want to buy a 14ft boat
to pull with my Westy. If you do whats it like as far as handling, stopping
and esp backing the trailer in and out of the launch. Any info would be
appreciated.
Thanks
Spencer
