Bill,

That's the best thing I've heard so far about this trailer. I'll stick
with it then, trying only to drop it down a little for easier launching
and loading. I plan to look into smaller tires this weekend. I've got
10"
instead of the originals. That's what it came with when I bought it.

BTW, mine is a 1988.
