i bought it at shipwreck, it was i think 600 with installation, which a friend of mine has almost similar on his 20ft caravelle and he paid almost double.
the only down side is I lose the use if the swing-away tounge on the trailer, so I will have it apart to fit it in the garage for the winter.
I would talk to sarah who is the service manager and she'll take really good care of you. I;ve had a few problems with my BRAND NEW boat and she is the only one who works there who really seems to care about the customer!!!

I ended up going with the Trailer Tux.

It's a little pricey, but after looking at a lot of them, I think it's worth it. The customer service you get from Bob is second to none, every Tux is custom made and fitted to your boat/trailer.

a buddy of mine has the same one on his 21 caravelle, the only problem is that its a pain to get to the jack and stuff on my trailer. my jack is further back because of the folding tounge.

and those ones are nice!!

Well, I'm new to the site, but this section is neat to see all the different and SPENDY toys for the summer:eek::d

I Just bought my first boat about a month and a half ago and it will take the cake as the oldest boat posted in here...


1971 Fiberform 16-1/2' bowrider with a 4 cylinder 140hp Mercruiser I/O Runs good for an old girl:)

No pics of her on the water yet, but she is still a fun little one:D
