today is a good day

[boaterntexas]

well thanks to the 70 and sunny weather we had here this weekend, I took my boat out, started right up and ran great. However I was having a little problem with trailer sway. The vehicle is a 1988 grand wagoneer, which whiegh in at 4500 lbs, good tires all balanced. class III tow hitch. the boat 1991 17.5' vhull single axel trailer.. whieghs in at about 2500lbs.. <br /><br />my question is should I move more of the boat towards the tounge or aft?

Howdy, BNT.<br /><br />Don't move the boat if it is correctly located on the trailer, with the transom on the last keel roller or at the ends of the bunks. Move the suspension/axle assembly back. <br /><br />You should have 7 to 10% of the trailer weight on the tongue. That would be about 200-250lb. <br /><br />Moving to Trailers.<br /><br />Good luck.
