Great advice
I had to replace a tire on the boat trailer the other day and behind the bearing was a huge wad of string. Never would had thought that to happen to the tires.

Yes sir ! I try to keep mine checked about once a month nowsince about 2 years ago I noticed my motor not turning like it ought too and I discovered that it was all wrapped up with line!
I do it during "boat maintenance" time, wash, vacuum, check TM and outboard props, check battery connections, trailer tires, etc. Probably monthly during the summer, and for sure before any big trips.
Checked mine last Thursday...did not find any line this time but have in the past. As said above...should be checked regularly.
Check the outboard prop, too.
Definitely!!!Quote:

Yep, check those wheel bearings also if you see some grease on the tires or rims.

Good tip and I haven't checked mine in a while....
sound advice, thanks
I check my troll motor, every trip! Save that bearing- it is expensive to replace. I know from experience.
