That's a huge trailer for a single Sea-Doo. How much does the trailer weigh and what model Sea-Doo?

Default Zieman & 4 TEC SC

The trailer is a Zieman J1-B (440 lbs) and the Seadoo is a GTX 4TEC SC (900 lbs). The tongue weight is 160 lbs.

Default The TT isn't really build for towing>>>

I hope the trailer/Sea-Doo combo isn't very heavy and I also hope the area you live in and take the Sea-Doo are relatively flat. A turbo engine can react extremely poorly when carrying a load much higher than expected. My rule of thumb is to never tow with a turbo engine, but I am paranoid like that.

Good luck!

Any rebuttals? I'd be glad to be told that I'm just wrong about this.
