  1. I have a 2010 RAM 1500, HEMI, crew cab, 3.92 rear end, with the extra capacity fuel tank. Bought this specifically for towing. I pull about #9000 when rigged and full of water and fuel. (Discovery 246 w/dual axle Venture 8025 trailer.)

    Highway towing = 8 mpg. (plenty of power for hills and passing though)

    Highway non-towing = 21 mpg.

    I've been very happy with this rig.

  2. I agree with Gene. I had bought the Gimbal mounts for my 1802 and sent them back. The paperwork with the mounts said don't run them to the side, only straight back. I ended up putting 12 inch track systems on both back corners, and they're great. Easily removable and reconfigurable. I talked to a trophy rep once, and he told me the boat is made for fishing and any area where the antiskid is, it is reinforced and you can mount directly to that. Of course use some common sense with backing washers and maybe a plate.

  3. I'll second the Oceanus. I got my MMSI number from BoatUS (website) and have it linked into my Lowrance H2O handheld GPS. My five year old daughter knows if something happens to me, to press and hold the button under the red flap. I agree with Ray, lot's of features, some of my key ones.

    > Can program the weather radio to only give you alerts for the area you are in. (I forget what it's called.)

    > Can send your GPS location to another DSC radio if you know that persons MMSI number. Great for sharing locations, without alerting the fleet.
