I can highly recommend the 262 hull. Make sure you have a tow vehicle that can handle it. With trailer, fluids and gear it will top out at over 6500 pounds.
Agreed you would have to sell your Ford PU and buy a small SUV to pull it

Sounds like you’ve got a clean one Pilotmike!
The 262’s are nice, and seems to be much better inventory of them, maybe I’ll broaden my search. Need to research overall length to work out how it would fit in the garage.
Edit: What is a fair ballpark to budget for a trailer?

I found a Road King aluminum trailer at Lake Norman Marina (7500lbs axles) that fit the boat for $3800 new. It was a 2018 model they used to drop their test drive Cobalts.
I trailer daily, other than a cheap wiring harness (which I replaced) it does the job.
