I have a Triton also, the small hole in the tongue where the tiny little pin goes is where the lock goes all the way through on mine.

I had a trailer stolen off my truck in east texas once. Man that BLOWS when you get back and have to load you boat up in the back of the truck. Extra wide-Deep looks really funny sticky way out the back. Insurance did not cover any of it. So i had to find another dilly trailer to replace the one that got stolen. If i ever catch a thief in the act at a boat ramp i will be sure to cut off his balls and use them for bait. CANT STAND A THEIF!!!!
Good luck finding your traler. Bad part was, it was my best friends equipment...Breaking news to him really hurt!

My trailer has a hole that a master lock will fit in to lock the trailer on the ball. It is where the cheap little pin slips in under the latch on the hitch.

There is a patented product out there that does just this but I can't think of the name of it. I intend to buy one for my work trailers. It is both a theft preventer and safety measure as it won't allow the trailer to come off the ball. I'll see if I can get the name of it and post here.

If you have Progressive, it doesn't matter. Progressive will do anything they can to get out of paying. Daniel Gracia from San Antonio SUCKS, and so does Progressive.
