    Second Happiest Day . . .

    Nice boat Ted, Congrats! The hauler that just brought my new to me 330 sundancer had an f250 and hydraulic trailer, the boat weighs about 12k, He said it was a breeze to tow with that ford. He charged me 700 for about 65 miles, and blocked it on my property. Guess that was a deal!
