01 What makes it unique
The Jay Feather 33BH is on Jayco’s 2027 Jay Feather roster. Jayco’s own floorplan page lists it at 37 ft overall, 10 ft 7 in tall (11 ft 4 in with the air conditioner) and 8 ft wide, sleeping up to 10.
Jayco publishes all four weights: an unloaded vehicle weight of 8,120 lb, a cargo carrying capacity of 1,680 lb and a GVWR of 9,800 lb (unloaded weight plus cargo capacity equals the GVWR exactly), with a dry hitch weight of 910 lb. Tanks are 55 gal fresh, 68 gal grey and 68 gal black, with 40 lb of propane.
Nearest on Jayco’s 2027 Jay Feather roster by unloaded weight: 29QBH (7,335 lb UVW, 1,660 lb CCC) and 30RKB (7,250 lb UVW, 1,745 lb CCC).
How the 33BH differs from the other 45 Jay Feather floorplans. Most distinctive first. Each rank counts only the siblings that publish that field, and a figure most of them share is left out. Not every one of these pages covers the same model years as this one (2027); each figure is the one its own page prints, so a rank compares pages, not one model year.

How these published figures sit against the rest of the catalogue: travel trailer tongue weight by size; fresh, grey and black tank sizes; camper trailer size chart.
Federal tire recalls naming this size. NHTSA’s recall file names ST225/75R15 in 2 tire recalls: 14T015000 (Dynamic Tire Corp., 2014; make TOWMAX STR; model ST); 17T014000 (Triangle Tire USA, 2017; make TRIANGLE; model TR643). A tire recall covers only the brands, lines and DOT date codes it lists, and this page does not know which brand of tire this trailer was built with, so read the brand and DOT code on your own sidewalls before relying on this list. Only 242 of NHTSA’s 788 tire recalls name a size in their summary, so a size with no match is not a clean record (NHTSA recall file, read 12 Oct 2026).

Compares your figures with this page’s published GVWR (9,800 lb) and the upper loaded tongue estimate (1,470 lb, a rule of thumb). Your vehicle’s placard and the trailer’s own weight label govern.
Loaded range: 10–15% of GVWR on the tongue, a rule of thumb, not a measurement of this unit. No truck ratings or hitch classes (why; NHTSA, DOT HS 809 433).
03 Jay Feather floorplan family
Jay Feather is Jayco's lightweight step-up travel trailer — a notch above the value Jay Flight SLX, built on an American-made Norco® Z-frame with vacuum-bonded laminated walls, an 11 cubic-foot 12-volt refrigerator and residential touches.

Most Jay Feather floorplans carry a single slide and an optional king bed in place of the standard 60×80 queen; several add an outdoor camp kitchen. Jay Feather replaced the discontinued White Hawk in Jayco's range for 2025, absorbing its more-featured positioning. Additional floorplans (front-kitchen, rear-living, and bunk layouts) are documented on the line hub. Always confirm equipment and weights against the unit's own weight sticker.

11 NHTSA safety record
NHTSA holds 23 recall campaigns and 38 owner complaints (model years 2005 on) against the Jay Feather line. They are counted separately: a recall is a confirmed defect with a remedy, a complaint one owner’s unverified account.
What to look at on a used one. Across the 38 complaints filed on this line the most-reported components are structure (18%), equipment (16%) and tires (16%).
Recall coverage here is not complete, and complaints are owners’ unverified reports (how this record is built). Check a specific VIN at NHTSA before you buy. Full tables are on the Jay Feather line page.
