Height of 190/192 OEM trailer

[thepiratemorgan]

Thank you in advance for any and all replies. Does anyone know the coupler height of a leveled 19ft series OEM trailer with stock tires for ball height purposes? (Measured at the bottom edge of the coupler)
I know the top edge of my receiver is 12" above the ground, but the SX192 I'm buying is currently in storage so I have no way to measure and I need to get my rig prepared in advance of sale.

Just getting ready to put her in the water, so I took pics of the trailer on the truck, hopefully they help.

I can safely assume that your trailer is level at that height? I ask because Curt towing says that the trailer needs to be leveled while not coupled and then measured.
Enjoy your day on the water, I'm still looking at snow!! Grrrrrrrr. I have a feeling that I'm going to be living vicariously through a few of you from the south!!

Level hence the 3.25 inch drop hitch.

I was going to say "About 16in", but looks like @FLBulldogger beat me to it. I did the same thing last fall when I got the new truck. Had to get a new drop height to level the boat while on the significantly taller truck.

Excellent!! Thanks guys!!

One other thing, that's a 2" ball used, correct? I am in process of buying 2015 SX192 with trailer. I got to look at the boat today, the trailer tongue looks different than FLBulldogger. Stupid me forgot to confirm trailer ball, owner stated 2", but he has "plenty of other toys" that he tows.

Yes 2" ball

I'm picking up a new SX 190. I'm at 18" at the top of the hitch ball today. (Ground to top of 2" hitch ball) From the photos it looks like I'll be around 1" high (the top of the hitch ball should be around 17" if I'm looking at the photos correctly) Am I in a safe ballpark?

I think you will be just fine

You'll be just fine. It'll get you home safely.

Might want to "tune" that in the future if you have clearance problems with driveways or ramps or things. Also if there are weird driving dynamics (too bouncy, etc) that can sometimes be "tuned out" by leveling the trailer. With that said, if it tows well on the way home, you'll be fine to leave it that way forever.
