Note:
Contact your dealer to evaluate your towing vehicle and hitch, and to make sure you
have the correct trailer for your boat.
•
Make sure the trailer is a match for your boat’s weight and hull design. More damage can be done to a
boat by the stresses of road travel than by normal water operation. A boat hull is designed to be supported
evenly by water. So, when it is transported on a trailer it should be supported structurally as evenly across
the hull as possible allowing for even distribution of the weight of the hull, engine and equipment.
•
Make sure the trailer bunks and rollers properly support the hull and do not put pressure on the lifting
strakes. The rollers and bunks must be kept in good condition to prevent scratching and gouging of the
hull.
•
The capacity rating of the trailer should be greater than the combined weight of the boat, motor, and
equipment. The gross vehicle weight rating must be shown on the trailer. Make sure the weight of the
boat, engine, gear and trailer is not more than the gross vehicle weight rating.
•
Make sure the boat is securely fastened on the trailer to prevent movement between the boat and trailer.
The bow eye on the boat should be secured with a rope, chain or turnbuckle in addition to the winch cable.
Additional straps may be required across the beam of the boat.
Note:
Your dealer can provide instructions on how to load, fasten and launch your boat.
Before Going Out On The Highway:
•
CANVAS ENCLOSURES must be removed when trailering. Canvas enclosures are not designed to
withstand the extreme wind pressure encountered while trailering and will be damaged. Always remove
and properly store the enclosure before trailering your boat.
•
Make sure the tow BALL and TRAILER COUPLER are the same size and bolts and nuts are tightly
secured.
•
The COUPLER MUST BE COMPLETELY OVER THE BALL and the LATCHING MECHANISM
LOCKED DOWN.
•
Make sure the TRAILER IS LOADED EVENLY from front to rear as well as side to side and has the
correct weight on the hitch. Too much weight on the hitch will cause the rear of the tow vehicle to drag
and may make steering more difficult. Too little weight on the hitch will cause the rig to fishtail and will
make controlling the tow vehicle difficult. Contact your Pursuit dealer or the trailer manufacturer for
the correct weight on the hitch for your trailer.
•
The SAFETY CHAINS must be attached crisscrossing under the coupler to the frame of the tow vehicle.
If the ball was to break, the trailer would follow in a straight line and prevent the coupler from dragging
on the road. Make sure the trailer emergency brake cable or chain is also installed to the tow vehicle frame.
•
Make sure the LIGHTS on the trailer function properly.
•
CHECK THE BRAKES. On a level parking area roll forward and apply the brakes several times at
increasing speeds to determine if the brakes on the tow vehicle and trailer are working properly.
•
Make sure the tow vehicle has SIDE VIEW MIRRORS that are large enough to provide an unobstructed
rear view on both sides of the vehicle.
