Maybe I'll give uship a whril. I have the original build sheets for the boat and it shows the original shipping weight of just a little over 6000 lbs. The trailer is aluminuim and weights about 1200 lbs. That puts it a little over the towing capacity, a little over by percentage. I'll be the only person in the truck and I'm taking minimal luggage and the bare basic tools.
I'm not too worried about the truck pulling it safely. I'm more worried about the cops busting my ***** for it being too heavy.
