Unknown Phantom 21
Hi All,
Can anyone guide me in the right direction, to find out more about a 21ft Phantom, built in about 1986, blue in colour, with white number plaques, with the number P201 on it. I have bought this boat and would like to find out about her history.
Any ideas would be gratefully received.
Cheers
Peter

because the front of the trailer is ment to be about 50 kg. otherwise when you tow it, it will snake all the time.
our old trailer used to balance and it was awful to tow with!

Is that really true? Burty told me 60 kg nose weight once but I dismissed it as bollox as thats an awfull lot of weight to have to lift when adjusting the jockey wheel on the clamp. I doubt a mercury 2.5 power head weighs much more than that!!!

Pete, doesn't really matter about how much nose weight. Not too much to lift but enough to put weight onto your ball hitch, as i said minimum 60lb's

Hi Pup, Have you had the winch support, on your trailer, modified. I spoke with Mr Degraaff about this, mine is far too high. PS, what are those wheels off.
