locodave Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Just been doing some research and really appreciate your help guys I was just wondering if a Holden Commodore would be able to pull out the boat at a ramp easily? Whether it's steep or wet etc! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisg Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Commodores will suffer at he ramp the same as any 2WD car. 95% of the time take it slow slow and it will all be fine. Wet sand is the killer for any rear wheel drive car so if your ramp is prone to that take a broom just in case. The biggest problem for "cars" is a shallow angled ramp at high tide. My Commodore has had a few wet washes of the tailpipe before now. C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bisso Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 What size boat are you talking about? this has alot to do with your question... i had a VN V6 commodore and didnt have any problems towing. mind you that was towing a Haines V146C with 70hp motor which was light. if you have a big boat then yes you might have issues however unless you venture into non concrete boat ramps you should be fine as long. i always tried to not launch at low tide as the ramp incline made it harder than say high tide.
