topshelf 2 Posted July 15, 2018 Report Share Posted July 15, 2018 Looking @ a 2006 2000v with a 115 4 stroke single axle trailer does any one have a idea of the total weight of a package ? ( no its not in texas) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bamaskeet Posted July 15, 2018 Report Share Posted July 15, 2018 My guess is 3,500-4,000 lbs ready to fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant Posted July 16, 2018 Report Share Posted July 16, 2018 Going to be close to 4000 lbs total. Mine was 4200 on a single axle with a F150. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( no its not in texas) Unless it's a deal, that combo will be underpowered...again, your own fishing style and boating will determine....a 115 is "adequate"..but, you will see it significantly if you have more than 2 people in the boat....slow coming to plane and hole shot. dc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just put into writing a little nicer than most. Well said DC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justfish Posted July 19, 2018 Report Share Posted July 19, 2018 If it’s the little recessed ones, just fill them in and get the ones mentioned above depending on what cooler you use up there you might find you don’t need anything with the new roto coolers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bamaskeet Posted July 19, 2018 Report Share Posted July 19, 2018 I believe you are looking for a Southco hold down fitting. Onmar in Sweden is the supplier. They have a website and they do a good job shipping to the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like I am getting better economy at a lower cruising speed of 30 mph and the extra power compensates for addition passengers and the ability to outrun our summer storms.

Donh Posted July 20, 2018 Report Share Posted July 20, 2018 My ‘06 loaded on the trailer with F150 LA was 3610 pounds , single axle trailer. Agree you might find a F115 under powered for that boat. Mine had power pole, three batteries, TM, onboard charger, wash down pump and usual junk. Just for consideration mine hit slightly over 50 mph with two people before the rev limiter kicked in. dh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask me how I know. A 75 Qt Tundra not sufficiently weighted down can absolutely take flight moving down i75. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
