Just looking for some input on matching a trailer to a 12 or 14 foot boat. I have a 12 foot boat now but may someday go to a 14 footer. Using a 9.9 four stroke on the boat. I am looking to buy new. I can only find new trailers in my area set up for up to 16 footers rated for 1200 lbs, it seems like the smaller trailers are not available anytime soon due to production shut downs this year.
Would the 16 foot trailer be a pain to launch with the longer tongue? I guess I could cut it down but would hate to do that to a new trailer and limit any upgrade options. I have always simply loaded the boat in the bed of my truck in the past but looking to make the process more simple. Any thoughts are appreciated.
