JohnR - 6000- -7000lb trailer is more than enough for the boat I`m getting. I called Diamond Marine (largest Venture trailer on the east coast), and he said the 6000lb would be fine.
I`m getting a 85 Mako 254 with twins.

Boat hull dry is 3200#, add 800# for twin 150, 4000# trailer 1500# =5500# 100 gal gas about 700#= 6200#
Now you have 800# left for gear and other stuff, and what ever the catch weighs when you get back? You are going to be right on the edge with a 7000# trailer.
I would like to have some extra there! I say get a 8000 to 10,000# trailer.
Good Luck!
