Sweet ride I have the same one, only a 2000 with close to 1000 hrs. Still my favorite ride out of our crew.

Well spotted. I'm glad I can use the DHL trailer that I recently rebuilt. It's a fantastic trailer. JQ |

JQ, great looking boat and I really like the colors! I don't ever wish to hitch a ride because I actually like my wake on the NWZ hull. If yours is that much better I better never try it. It will cost me money if I do.
I have 2 sets of the rollers like you have under the boat in your pictures. My good set like yours does exactly what you need to do. I can push a car or boat around in my garage alone no problem. The first set I purchased from Harbor Freight were a waste of money. It took a lot of effort from two people to do the same job and then they broke, wheels just snapped off. Lesson learned buy the good ones and be happy. Enjoy your new Toy it will make boating more fun this year. Mark |

By the way, that trailer looks familiar. At least all that work isn't going to waste.

Wilhelm:
I use a product called Auto Dolly by Merriick Machine. They work great to move the boat into tight spaces. I use a floor jack and pick up one side of the trailer. Then I slide one Auto Dolly under each tire and lower the trailer. Repeat for the other side. Once the Auto Dollies are in place, the boat can be positioned where wanted. A good smooth and level floor helps. The Merrick Machine units have heavy duty casters that roll well. Link to Auto Dollies JQ |

Car dollies.
You jack up the trailer/car and place them under the wheel. There is a style that jacks the wheel up also Gojack i believe is a good one. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/ztc-6313l?seid=srese1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwhtT1BRCiARIsAGlY51Jp6JIqHe6I5vJ8cjvmUUjyXKLdb4bTRIb61t8sjpR79jOXN3YTNDIaAihWEALw_wcB |

Great looking boat. Those 'trays' with the castor wheels under your trailer wheels are exactly what I need to get my trailer into my very tight garage. What are they, how do you get the trailer onto them, and can one buy them off the shelf, or is it a custom made item? |

I've never been that impressed with the NWZ wake but I love the boat. With a world class wake like that I guess that's one excuse scratched off the list but you can still blame the driver. |

In a word...no. I've skied the "sister" to this boat many times. The TSC hull is "da bomb" compared to the slant-back's NWZ hull. TSC hull is mucho better. JQ |

It was only a matter of time until the RED voices in my head assumed control. Jonny Quest Slant-Back is now Jonny Quest Bubble-Butt. The 1994 SNOB is gone. The new horse in the barn is a 2001 SNOB. GT40. PP Digital Pro. Very clean. Only 200 hours. It pains me to sell the slant-back as I have a lot of time and $$ invested.
