Here's a dumb idea....

My Liberty struggles to pull a little boat (as in, it's a bit squirley at highway speeds). Can't imagine doing this:

that's more than 1500# including hull, trailer, motor, and gear...

notice the rear suspension is fully compressed.

all the rear suspension being compressed means is, too much tongue weight...

or too much stuff in the car. A properly balanced trailer won't load up the tow vehicle like that. I've towed 10,000 behind a 1 ton pickup, yet the truck's rear end didn't sag more than an inch, and that was with a gooseneck.

Yes indeed, the Woodstock Inn. =)

though I have the rotating thing going on.. So..

There's the Woodstock Inn one, the Pomfret Town Hall one, the WF one.. I think that's it.. They rotate randomly. I should throw one of the TT ones in there to confuse people. =-)
