Hello all,

We are towing Guenevere with our 2014 Pacific trailer.

We pulled out of the storage yard last Thursday and about half way to Tampa.

BUT...... Day before yesterday we had a break fire on the trailer.

I caught it very fast, and with quick action by Jill and I, we had no damage to tires or boat. We are now waiting on parts for a fix. I posted a Youtube video on our page (https://youtu.be/vTdq4K9xH4U) so you can see some of the stuff.

Today, I JUST got back to the hotel room from working on the trailer. Still got greasy hands....

The two calipers on the right side were burnt. NO, ZIP, NADA pads left in them! Warn down to the metal plates.

I had the mech bring 4 new ones. If the right 2 were bad, how good could the left ones be. I now have 2 spare calipers with GOOD almost new pads in them! Now how can that happen?????

So, then we go to bleed the breaks. I hook my vacuum pump and can NOT get any fluid to flow to the calipers. SOOOoooo I use a big breaker bar to try to compress the surge box hitch. Will not move. So, we take out the bolts and it frees up. We put the bolts back in and re-mount it. I then try the vacuum again, no joy. I try compressing the surge piston a few times and NO fluid coming out of the calipers!

We removed the surge box, and when I took the break line off of the backup solenoid I got NO leakage at all!!

I had the mech take the surge box back to the trailer place in San Antonio (tomorrow AM) for a check and fix.

We still have a bit over 1,000 miles to go and I want it all working!!

What an adventure..................
