Have a great road trip. Don't forget to carry a T handle lug wrench, as you'll need to check your lugs periodically.

I actually carry a 100 lb. floor jack and a pair of heavy jack stands everywhere I go out of town. A bottle jack will do too.

Don't forget extra straps to strap down the bow to the trailer. And ask them if you will need a transom saver, for the trip home. Hate to see a cracked transom on a brand new boat. Have a safe trip and don't hurry back, we want you back here in one piece so we can see pics of the new ride!

Thanks, yes the carpet was already like that. This boat was a southbay 925 entertainer so it had the big bar in the rear.

How cool that must be.... starting with a great platform, but basically a blank slate. That would be a great project!
