[quote=keschwa]I quite understand that the trailer will fit, but on narrow ramps, typically the ramp is not the critical width. You also have some sort of structure to tie your boat to once you put the boat in the water. Around here, 99% of the time you have dock or bulkhead on either side of the ramp. The better designed ones have those features above the water, thus if you back your 8.5' trailer down the 10 foot ramp the trailer will make it perfectly with room to spare - I know this through experience. However, if you have an 11' beam and the docks/bulkheads are 10' apart your boat will not hit the water. If anyone is willing to experiemnt I would love to watch.
The original post was that Soul wanted to travel with his boat. I had already guessed the on that he uses works, I had concentrated on the fact that he wanted to travel. Not sure what the point of this thread is anymore if he is happy with his current ramp and that the prevailing opinion is that all ramps are wide enough for an 11' beam. I would certainly be happy on a lake where my cruising cat whooped up on all the hot rods.[/quote]
