Figured I would post my winter project done by the folks over at BoatMate...turned out great!

Pics were to big to attach so here is the link, if someone can take a couple from the links and post that would be awesome.

I just picked up a new Boatmate trailer for a CC210 It looks similar to yours. You can't beat the looks and quality also tows like a dream.
I checked into a MC upgraded trailer with 18"wheels for a X15 and was quoted almost double the price of the Boatmate and the quality wasn't
as good.

Wow, that thing looks awesome! Very well done.

Looks great! One question, would you mind posting the bolt pattern and offset of those wheels, the size of the tires, and the width of the fenders. I was told that I might need the wider fenders but that it depended on my tire width. Actually that's three questions I guess haha, but any help I get is appreciated. Thanks.

Looks great!

Looks awesome: I think it would look even better if you could re-locate the spare to the underside rear of the trailer. What do the lights on the top rail of the trailer do?

(hehateme) · (hehateme) **Join Date: Sep 2008** 01-12-2009, 9:25 AM

Very nice. What size tires did you use?

(cmcathy1) · (cmcathy1) **Join Date: Dec 2007** 01-12-2009, 11:08 AM

That trailer is tighter than emo kids' pants.

Rahn was describing the new trailer boatmate was making for him when I picked up the old Mastercraft X-star trailer off him...

All I can say is wow..... that's a good looking trailer...only thing missing is..ummmmmm can't think of anything..

(hatepain) · (hatepain) **Join Date: Aug 2006** 01-12-2009, 1:03 PM

I like the spare there. Why pay the extra money if no one can see it? I know just so it doesn't look ghetto if a blow out does occur.

(colombiansurfer)

Looks great! I had the same done to my trailer also. But I am wondering what the lights on top of the tube are for and what color?

(seankey) · (seankey) **Join Date: Jun 2007** 01-13-2009, 3:56 AM

The lights on top of the trailer are actually what I guess you call "runway lights." They light up to make loading the boat at night easier. Super tight.

(rwb_xstar) · (rwb_xstar) **Join Date: Nov 2008** 01-14-2009, 5:28 PM

Thanks for the comments!

Tire size is 255/45/18...and I figured I'd show off the spare is why I had it mounted there.

Sean is right, the lights on the top rails are "runway" lighting. When the trailer hits the water, the LED's come on lighting the way and making others on the launch a bit jealous.

Owen and his crew at Boatmate make the best looking and performing trailers around.

(grant_west) · (grant_west) **Join Date: Jun 2005** 01-15-2009, 9:10 AM

^^Is that a Exhaust pipe ^^
Sorry but that is straight Hilly Billy jack ass.
Everytime I see a truck with with the 18 wheeler smoke stacks comming threw the bed I just gotta crack up. It looks like its aim'd perfict for the exhaust to go straight into the boat LOL nothing like taking of your clothes to sit in a boat coverd in diesel exhaust.
That thing =FAIL
YEaaaaaa Haaaaaaaaa

(bjeremi) · (bjeremi) **Join Date: Mar 2006** 01-15-2009, 9:52 AM

Ha a hate to do it since it's nice boat setup but that exhaust does equal Fail

I don't like the stack either, but the 24" wheels look nice.

(andrew_moreton)

Any close up pics of the lights on the Boat Mate trailer?

(spherren) · (spherren) **Join Date: Aug 2005** 01-15-2009, 3:12 PM

Those are semi wheels.

(jonyb) · (jonyb) **Join Date: Nov 2008** 01-15-2009, 3:16 PM

The chrome door handles make it look like a spinnerbait.

so are they installing the runway lights on teh boatmate's now?

(jasonba1) · (jasonba1) **Join Date: Apr 2008** 01-15-2009, 6:40 PM

where is everyone getting there wheels from for there trailers. I would like to get a set for mine but I only need them in 15 or 14 inch since I just have a supra comp

(rwb_xstar) · (rwb_xstar) **Join Date: Nov 2008** 01-15-2009, 7:53 PM

I would work though Owen at boatmate, expecially if you are close by. Here is what they used, but I think are going away from the rev line.

http://www.gearalloy.com/wheels.html

http://www.rev-wheel.com/rev/rev.html

I had the choice between:

Rev: Dirty Harry's, 50 Cal, and Vigilante

However...I went for the 711MB's.

You did a good job, although you wouldn't have made a mistake with any of them.

The dually is sick with the Alcoa's but the stack is the equivalent of throwing a sock down your pants before you hit the club. Sometimes guys less is more mmm'k? Oh yeah and kick the stainless door handles you might as well throw on a chrome bug guard and some drip guards around the windows. The boats are trump tight, great color schemes and flossy trailers.

(colombiansurfer)

I have gear alloy on my boatmate trailer also. 713MB. Check it out in my profile. They look great on the trailer and everywhere I go, everyone comments on how good the rims look.

That black Chevy runs in the low 12's quarter mile.

(bjeremi) · (bjeremi) **Join Date: Mar 2006** 01-16-2009, 7:17 AM

I not calling BS yet because I know it can be done. But I would like to see a vid of that. That would awsome to puul up next to a stock vett and then toast him.

Wait, that truck runs 12s?

(bjeremi) · (bjeremi) **Join Date: Mar 2006** 01-17-2009, 8:21 PM

(kylek306) · (kylek306) **Join Date: Feb 2003** 01-17-2009, 8:28 PM

My buddy used to drive an Sti, and I've been in the car racing from red lights where trucks that size hung right with it. It is definitely a sight seeing them run like that

(alans) · (alans) **Join Date: Aug 2005** 01-17-2009, 9:15 PM

There are some really cool vids on youtube of trucks like that running into the 11's and some even into the 10's. pretty crazy to watch. Also explains the stacks.

(saceone) · (saceone) **Join Date: Jan 2009** 01-25-2009, 2:23 PM

Wow, whole bunch of haters talkin about that mans truck. Lets see your POS rides before you start clownin. Those haters, I bet two things:
1) You aint got a truck anywhere close to that 2) you aint got a boat anywhere close to his either. Dont go postin pictures of your friends rides or •••••••• pulled off the Internet either...

(ponyh8r) · (ponyh8r) **Join Date: Dec 2004** 01-27-2009, 11:28 AM

I was thinking the same thing Martin. I personally don't dig the stacks, but that truck is badass. I really love the 22.5" rims on dually's. Sick ride bro.

(eyekahn) · (eyekahn) **Join Date: Aug 2007** 01-27-2009, 12:40 PM

diesel + propane = 10's

(rwb_xstar) · (rwb_xstar) **Join Date: Nov 2008** 01-27-2009, 5:15 PM

Just curious...does any one have or can anyone find the Gear Allow 711MB's on a truck or SUV. I'd love to match the rims-up, but not sure what they would look like in 22's.
