Hit a curb turning on to a small bridge dint go wide enough took the turn 100 times before this time it caught me boat was strapped down poped all straps and landed completely upside down on the motor carb was holding on by the throttle cable I was 5 min from gator tail going try out the new 3 blade hyot said it could
HAVE been a lot worse said I'm lucky it don't look like it broke to much stuff

That is a sick feeling, I came close to loosing mine once after a trailer tire blew out on the interstate.

If I had to guess, your boat was tired of being seen riding around behind you with that ball cap bent to shit and decided to commit suicide... I hope you get everything lined out, does GT sell hats?

That's not me in the pic that's somebody that pulled over to help me I took the pic

Thank goodness!!!

I shoulda took a pic when it was upside down but I was freaking out and I don't know how but I flipped it over on it's side by ma self and I weigh 160 lbs soaking wet 3 of us couldn't get it back on the trailer had to pick it up with a front end loader

Im trying to look on the positives I got a good look at the bottom of my boat and It don't have any hooks in it

Dam that sucks

That stinks; glad it didn't do too much damage. How hard was the hit? Would side rails on the trailer have helped any or do you think the boat would've just bent them over during its escape?

Just seen this on fb. Damn baw id be sick!!

I had side rails I took it off to try and get it back on the trailer but I wasn't budging

Mine fell off once when strap broke. I pushed the front off the trailer so the boat was flat on the ground. I then positioned the trailer in front of it. I then unhooked from the truck and used the trailer winch to winch the trailer under the boat. Then someone stopped to help when I was about finished:lol:

Your wife or girl friend is looking like you dumb ass

That's not ma ole lady that's the ppl that lived in the house across the street

oh so they already know

That's sucks for sure but it could have been worse! Glad everything is okay!


Sent from my beeper

Well she's still thinking it. I promise you:lol:

It's not ok yet they had a wet spot on the road where the motor was hope it was just gas. But it's at gator tail Kyle and hyot walked out said boy one day they gonna write a story bout you I'm always bring ma shit there cause I break something out if the ordinary

Sorry to see your rig like that. Glad to hear the damage wasn't extensive.

Would you mind elaborating on the tie down strap failure? Did the straps shear or did the fastening points fail? How was the boat secured to the trailer? Just trying to learn from your experience.

Front winch poped had to re tie back straps one of them poped and the other one came off when the other one poped because it dint have a bind on it any more the trailer rolled off the ball only thing keeping the trailer on was the chains

Might look into these ones

Where you get that from

Stay off that weed

Dammit man! Hate that for ya. It could of been a lot worse.

About 4 years ago I took off work for 3 weeks for the start of the second phase. I was two weeks into it and had duck hunted every morning and deer hunted every afternoon, running on RedBull. Finished hunting one morning and started to nod off on the way home while it was raining really bad. Next thing I know I'm heading for the ditch with boat in tow. I eased my truck back on the road so it wouldn't flip, but my boat came up on the road at a bad angle and flipped taking the trailer with it. It f'd up the 27 MB that I had on it but the boat was fine. 2 weeks worth of cans, decoys, and ducks spread about 80 yards. That was a beotch. Thank God I live in the country, 3 guys pulled up and we had it all back together in 5 mins.

Damn! You must have been hauling ass!

I wasant going fast cause I was waiting to turn it was a big ass curb bout 1 1/2 ft

Damn square chines, a round chine would have made that turn.

Glad you are not too bad messed up. Hope they can work you in and get you back on the water.

Kool-aid an sharp turns don't work

Well it could have been worse if ya dad was driving it would have been drug down the road a lil ways

that sucks.... that gg is slick. must of got on your tires too

Hey serious question!!!!
Did the axle on the trailer shift?! I turned to go over the levee ones ring and hooked a pot hole and it shifted my axle and I had to launch the damn boat and re align my axle cuz they only held on by u-bolts and the u-bolts slide down the rails

I never looked at the trailer that was the last of my worries and yea it does have GG on it
The tank got there after I got it back on the trailer idk how he knew but he called me right up
Guess word travels fast

I hope the trailer is totaled cause I got fucked when I bought it dude told me that it would fit a 18 ft boat
And said if it dint I could return it and get a diffrent one if it was to small we'll it was to small with the boat all the way on the trailer and not hanging off it's extremely tounge heavy takes two ppl to pick it up so I hope it's junk and I can get insurance to cover it and get me a longer one
Don't buy trailers from mike Gerald trailer in Batton rouge
