Anyone ever trailer a 290?

Ryan,
I've towed a bunch of bigger boats, 28s, 30s, 35s, the biggest issue is the ramp transition.  Steep ramps have a very pronounced transition from the flat of the parking lot onto the ramp itself.  Too steep a transition, and too long a trailer tongue, and the trailer will ground on the break point before the back end of the truck can get back far enough to pick the coupler back up again...if you know what I mean.

Our triple-axle Myco had a VERY longue, and on a low mounted hitch, she wanted to drag...

Our local ramp is actually nice in that regard as they took advantage of the natural terrain (a hill on a creek) so the ramp sort of eases from ramp pitch, to the slightly-less-steep hill pitch.  I think I'm good there, and I think on a high tide, I've got plenty of ramp to get the boat on the trailer.  So now, the challenge is finding the cash, and convincing the wife that its a good use of said cash

Just noticed, I combined long and tongue into one word...longue.  And I call other people duma$$es!!!
