I bought my first bass boat today and I had a quick question. I'm going to have to leave it outside until I make space in the garage for it, so what trailer hitch lock would y'all recommend? It's a Basscat Pantera II if that matters at all.

You can get them at Walmart or Academy. Has a ball that fits up in the tongue, then a ribbed u-shape bar locks into it. Apparently, a sledge hammer can knock it out, but at least you tried. You could add a boot or chain aroun the wheels for added layer of security/deterrent.

Congrats on your boat! I use a lock thru the hole in the clip on top of the hitch and one of these as well. A chain and locks thru the wheels is good too but a pain to mess with. Just remember locks keep honest people honest...make sure your insurance is current and you'll be good.

A pistol lock works very well...they pass through the hole and I've used one for a while

Clean the garage! That beautiful Cat needs a good secure home. Best of luck and welcome to the family!
