I have a 2000kg boat on a 550 kg trailer. I have just bought a new trailer and I have way too much nose weight at 250 kg. This needs sorting now!!!!! Searching the net I see that there are a couple of schools of thought from min 50kg nose weight to 7% of trailer plus load weight which, in my case, works out at about 180kg. This latter figure still seems high to me though.
I intend to cure this by moving the axles forward. But can anyone give me their opinion of what the nose weight should be?
Thanks in advance.
