Picked up my new Jayco Designer 35rlts last week in Des Moines,Iowa

 

I operate a part-time boat/RV hauling business in my spare time. Here is one of my first boat moves and a darn good photo. The trailer weighs 4000lbs and can hold a 10,000lbs boat. It has hydraulic rams for putting boats on barrels. This boat is a 26' SeaRay.




This was my very first move and is now a regular customer. Its a 24' Bayliner way down the embankment. First time took 1 1/2 hrs to put it in, now it takes 20 min.





This last one is my favorite tow. It's my friends and mine 360 winged sprintcars on my trailer. It looks cooler with the wings on but we're heading back to Vancouver Island(B.C. Canada) via the ferry and taking the wings down halves the cost. We just came back from a racing trip to Boise, Idaho. Set the cruise at 60 and the truck seldom shifts out of O/D over three mountain ranges.And about $300 in fuel for about a 1000 miles, if memory serves.





I seldom remember to take pictures of jobs so I haven't posted any of the RV tows, but I thought these three above were interesting.


I love my truck. It will darn near idles up a boat ramp with a loaded trailer and to pull the Bayliner out of the hole I just give a little gas. The tires may slip some but in low range with posi, it just keeps on going.

 

They were a pretty regular delivery for me. I bet I delivered 30 plus to trailers to them in the last year I hauled rv's.

Here's one you won't see every day.
Lesson Learned. Don't drive tired................

 

I am hoping that I won't need to put the air bags on this one. I have a set from my 2500 MegaCab sitting in the garage. I'll know later in the spring after a short road trip. Gotta be right for Moab in May.

Lousy pic but the lighting was poor and I only had my iPhone w/ me.

 

From the looks of the picture, I would add the airbags.

Nice look ride.

 

 

My Rigs, camping at Douthat State Park, Virginia.

 

08 Crossroads Cruiser CF31QB we brought home Thursday night. Taking her out for the first time next weekend. DW really loves the front bunkhouse since it gives the grandkids their own room to play in. It also has the optional 1/2 bath in the master bedroom in the rear.
