They are also in Buford Georgia right down the road from Atlanta Marine on Lake Lanier. They have used boats. Also Singleton Marine. They are primarily Malibu and Axis, but also have other used brands. Atlanta Marine also has a place on Lake Sinclair GA too

I believe non current new is also completely open as well, not there is any anyway.

Wondering what you're towing the Makai with? If I could get a similar deal I might take another step up, since ther price you paid is similar to what I was going to pay for the Mojo. I have a 2016 Silverado 1500 with tow package. Max tow is 10,800 lbs. I know the Makai and taller is under that. But I also know that max tow rates are usually overblown.

I have a 2018 F150 4x4 with an Ecoboost. I pulled it 4 hours on the interstate at 70 mph with no problems. The trailer brakes work really well on the boatmate trailers. I wouldn't think your truck should have any problems. If I were going to pull it on a regular basis in hilly terrain, I might look at a 250 or 2500.

Where are you at? What State?

In Colorado at 5000’ elevation, if you have the 5.3l you maybe a little underpowered.

I stand corrected, the 5.3l should rock just fine at 5000 feet.

Thanks for the video. That gets me really thinking about moving to a Makai. Or at least putting it in the mix. Anyone have any thoughts on double axle trailer vs triple? Wheat are the positives and negatives?

Triple Axle is a waste of $ and nothing but a huge flex IMO!! Looks sweet but the tires scrub a lot. I don’t think it increase the weight rating on the trailer significantly if at all but I could be wrong about that.

I think TXSurf4 nailed most of the negatives of the triple axle, a long with decreased fuel mileage from more rolling resistance and weight more bearings to maintain, more brakes to maintain, and more tires to buy. Benefits i believe are decreased tongue weight if you are pulling with a 1/2 ton truck and it might just be more stable going down the road as in bounce less. I personally dont think its worth it.
