Euby...I don't carry a spare because I have kept it in rack storage and only trailer it twice a year. This year will be different though as we have not renewed our marina contract because we are both unemployed http://free.***boat.net/ubb/frown.gif Looks like we'll be trailering it alot more this year. Not sure if I'm going to get a spare though, its only 17 miles to the water and the boat would do fine on two tires per side...Steve
