Yeah that's not going to work...... When i found the rental on craigslist it was 500 for the week for a 21ft renkin. Boat was not perfect but it did what i needed it to do. Post an add and see what happens

21 ft for 500 ? I'd be ok with that.

Posting an ad right now.

Well less than 24 hours later, I'm pretty frustrated. It's just annoying that I'm gonna end up sitting on the dock watching everyone else's boat going by while MINE sits at home on it's trailer. I've got a 2002 camaro that's sitting in my garage, I'm just about ready to trade that for a truck

Left you a PM, I'd be willing to rent my boat for the week since my car has been out of commision for a month and a half so my boat is just siutting in my driveway. Let me know.

Awesome, I think I might have a lead on a truck (kind of free, from a family member). We'll be in touch!

looks like I might just be pulling a jetski behind my car. i guess a jetski is better than no boat :) - however I'd love to have the boat with me.

I take my 20 footer to Canada twice a year. 14 hour drive each way. I pull it behind a 35 foot Class A motor home. I do not see what the fuss is all about. Be sure you have good tires and a spare, and grease your wheel bearings
