As for leaving the trailer connected to the boat, my lil aluminum boat would float my trailer with no problem. I can't see a trailer sinking a fiberglass boat.
This is true, I had a boat that water came in faster than you could fish. I mean you had to fish for 10 minutes and run the boat for 10 minutes,lol.
