Square bodies towing boats, let's see them! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

502ss · 01-10-2011, 06:41 PM

Another board member gave me an idea to start a thread showing square bodies towing boats. My first thought was to just look for pics of dually's towing boats but let's see all square bodies!

I will start it off....

My 84 CC Dually towing an 84 30' wellcraft scarab with two 502 chevy big blocks

I also own a 74 21' Tahiti jet boat with a 502 big block but I usually tow this with my 07 avalanche

Here's the only thing I've got that is harder on gas than the truck.

A thread I can post in haha. Aussie 79 C20, towing imported 89 Correct Craft - Ski Nautique 2001. All the way from Michigan. Rebuilt the trailer and converted it to tandem, travel cover, wakeboard tower and killer stereo, auto ballast system, hot water shower. Put about 120hrs on it this summer, now winters here

I don't have any pictures with the Pantera behind the dually, but I'll see what I can do. That Tahiti's got an interesting deck. Kind of Schiada-like. And the rowboat in the bed is awesome!

I dont have any pics of the motor in the jet boat, it is just a stock 502. The scarab on the other hand has two lightly modified 502's making almost 600HP each. Here are a few videos.....

I wouldn't think that way, you're either on the water or you're not.

Nice pics.
