In need of some quick help here. I'm going to pickup my boat tomorrow but I dont know what ball size I need. Can anyone tell me what I am going to need? Getting a 2007 185 sport with a shorelander trailer.

Thanks!
 
Call the dealer, the size will be listed (stamped in the metal) on the top of the coupler on the trailer. :grin:
 
Thanks! I was just checking because i take delivery tomorrow morning, diddnt want to show up there and be bare assed haha. But the sales rep called me back and confirmed it is 2" just a little bit ago

thanks guys!
 
Make sure you have the correct electrical connection as well otherwise you'll need an adapter.

Morpheus, is right. I showed up to the dealer to pick up the boat, had the right size ball, hooked the trailer up and then grabed the electrical connection and went uh,oh...the saleman said he would be right back. Luckily he had the adapter there...the trailer should be a flat 5.

Good luck with picking up the boat!!

That's funny, I did about the same thing, I had bought one but left it at home, but yes the dealer had one. I have a 7 connector round on the truck and the plug on the trailer like wes said is flat 5.
