take care..

At 2:45pm on March 30, 2009, bobbi said…: Okay...well, hope you get that boat soon! Sailing season is here! Have you been to NCSail.org...great site some sailors up your way...and lots of good help

At 11:21am on March 9, 2009, Mac said…: Paul, you had asked me if I thought a Ford F100 would tow the boat and trailer and I thought I had sent you a reply but it looks like something happened to what I said.

My reply was I am not familiar with the Ford but I had also used a 2001 Dodge 1/2 ton pickup to tow the boat and trailer, I would never try to launch from this pickup. I have also used it to tow my car hauling trailer with my 1920 model T Ford to and from Texas. It did the trip but the SUV's were better towing the car and boat trailers with load.

At 12:14pm on February 28, 2009, Mac said…: Paul, My trailer weighs 1,520 pounds and I have used a 2001 GMC Yukon Denali XL, a 2005 Cadillac Escalade, and now a 2008 GMC 4 wheel drive ¾ ton pickup. All have done a good job but the Yukon was the best of them.

You might want to look up on Yahoo Groups the Bayfield group as there are many knowledgeable Bayfield owners and a treasure trove of posted Bayfield information at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/bayfieldyachts
