Hmmmm. Great questions. I assumed two batteries and forgot the hardtop is not standard. Good catch. I am a little light on the total weight. As for the gear weight on the 208, I backed into that number. I went to a scale with full fuel tanks and weighed the rig. It came to 5,220 lbs. I accounted...

Transducer issues on a 232 I heard a couple of 232 owners state that they had problems getting their transducers to work. It seems that once on plane they lost the bottom (reception). Is that problem specific to the 232 design? Anyone else have this problem on their 232?

I spent some time to calculate the towing weight of a 258 journey. I had some actual scale weights from my 208 Adventure to use as a comparison. See below. Here is what I came up with. The boat weight to total trailered weight turns out to be a factor of 1.9 to 2. I agree with the feedback that...

Thanks. I have a 208 now. It seems like you need to add about 90% to 100% of the published boat weight to this published weight to get to an approximation of the total rig weight. For example a 4,000 pound boat weight would convert to about 7,600 to 8,000 lb rig for an aluminum trailer. That is...

I am considering purchasing a 258 journey. For those that have trailered a 258, can you provide guidance on the weight for the boat, twin 150's, full fuel, trailer, and gear. Please tell me the type of trailer because steel is certainly heavier than aluminum. Thanks!
