Does anyone happen to know the width of an 8' TPL pram. Just wondering if it would fit in the bed of my 2028 Tacoma. Angled in

When I sold my 8 foot TPL Jay, I listed it as 48 inches wide. I don't recall how much rounding was involved as I don't have a copy of my original notes and I do not recall if I measured it at the top of the gunnels (probably) or on the hull bottom. Wish I had. I seem to recall weighing it without the plank seat and it was 72lbs.
The TPL pram is really heavy. You will probably need to devise a ramp system to slide it in and out of your pickup. It should fit in the back of your pickup. Weight is going to be the bigger factor.Quote:

The foam in the from and rest tanks were completely disintegrated. I just cut out the top of each one, made a great storage place for equipment and in the rear for the battery.
I plan on getting another Harbour Freight trailer, the 8' one that folds in half. Or it I can find a used motorcycle trailer or better yet a used jet ski trailer.
