Hi, The US supplied road trailers are not road legal in Europe, you may have big insurance problems if you have an accident while towing. Was the boat CE...
Hi Warren, Welcome to the group. I've not heard of the company you mentioned in your post. The UK dealer network seems to operate with local dealers who ...
Ken ... No comment :-( ... Providing it has a CE plate, I would have thought it wouldn't make much difference, in fact most buyers wouldn't know it was a grey...
Nooooo lloyd there are three different size hitches used in the states one of them is 2 inch (almost 50mm) but there is a larger size 2" 5/16ths this ones...
Hi Dave, I stand corrected on the hitch sizes, I based my enquiries when buying my boat, on the trailer for the 175 boat, but it stands to common sense that a...
Lloyd dont bother changing the hitch it will work just fine also you cannot get a uk hitch that works with hydraulic brakes (trust me i tried) all the uk...
Noticed yesterday that the boat has a distinct list to port at the moment in the marina, at anchor and at slow speed. The only thing I think that's changed is...
I have exactly the same issue with my 2855. I put this down to the trim tabs and indeed when I adjust them it then corrects the ride. This does not explain why...
The Fuel tank on my 2855 goes across the boat just back of the engine bay and so this would not be the cause of the listing. I filled mine up again after...
Ah yes the old trim tabs - when I did the sea trials on my 2855 the guy in charge of the boat had this down to a tee, but I cannot get the thing leveled at all...
Yep, at speed I too can easily sort out balance with the tabs. Logic tells me that there must be some weight imbalance. Given that when I stand on the...
The Trophy fisher range are apparently known for this. Never heard of it on a 2855 before however my 2655 has a slight starboard list whilst stationary (only...
Of course!! I've been looking at this problem the wrong way round. I'll just stack bottles of wine and crates of beer on the starboard side until the boat's...
Checkout the 2 photos i've posted of Whitelighter. 1 the night before the fleet review, the other charging back to Sparkes, him proving he has the faster boat!...
My 3055 was listing slightly to starboard at rest in the marina. She was moored stern-to. When I returned to the marina after taking her out I decided to moor...
Trim Tabs, Now there is a question - I have just bought a 2855 and on the sea trials the guy was using them perfectly - however since I have the boat I cannot...
May I suggest you have a look on bennets trim tabs web site and maybe even have a go on there simulater. http://www.bennetttrimtabs.com/ It may make a bit more...
I may be wrong here, but it sounds to me like you are not going fast enough. In case you are not doing this, you need to give it a load of welly with the leg...
No Dave, your quite right, whilst using the trim tabs it really doesn't matter. what I have found is its an art getting used to the tabs and the slightest...
Hi one and all Just got me a 2155 quite cheap with a lot of TLC required. The question is it suppose to be stiff getting into gear(forward or reverse)or do I ...
I think my listing mystery is solved. I spoke to the guy who surveyed my boat and, after a few questions, he suggested that it isn't that the portside is...
... question ... do I ... Hi Don, Sounds to me as though you're in need of a new shift/drive cable. They're about £50 plus fitting. I've just had a pair...
Hi Dave Thanks for that, I suppose thats is what I was thinking, Do you think that oiling may do some good, I have a cable clamp that I use on my motorcyle for...
Hi Dave, Yes, personally i think oiling or greasing the cable might help. When i got my last boat new, selecting froward was fine, but reverse was very stiff,...
Hello! One of your peers (bayliner memeber from Boston) told me about this group. I just recently got a 95 30ft Ciera with twin V8s and it came with very...
can't believe it's been 3 months since last contact, reading thro' messages this morning there is a healthy membership going, well done. I am back for a few...
