trailers
 

my v20 came from auction without trailer. it is now riding on my single axle trailer that i used to pull my 19' bayliner capris with 79 evinrude 150. seemed to ride fine when i pulled her home. i noticed that most of you guys got dual axles. should i upgrade? only about 4-5 miles to launch from home. but might wanna pull her on vacation one day.tx

I've got one from here, dual axle, torsion suspension, 6000lb. and disk brakes...extremely happy with it. I'll never own a roller trailer again.

Tin man what was the total with delivery and brakes....Nice looking trailers...

Re: trailers
 

agreed Tin i've had roller trailers and never again all mine are currently bunk they are the only way to go.

Re: trailers
 

Blu, I bought the boat w/trailer but have a receipt from previous owner for $2495, I think. torsion and brakes were options.

I still don't understand why the majority of trailers in the NE are rollers and FL is bunks???

Almost everytime I'm loading the boat and the ramp, people always say "what a great trailer, you just drove it right on".

Go bunk, you'll never go back!

Re: trailers
 

we have some step ramps here, and you don't always have anough water for a bunk trailer.

I have a friend that has a bunk, and when we are fishing Cape Cod Bay, he can't get out of the water till at least 1/2 tide.
The bay has like a 10 to13 foot tide.

With a roller I just need anough to get the bow on and up she comes!!
I have gone home showered and changed, and gone back just to see my buddys and others waiting for the water to rise!

Here were I live and the places I go Rollers are the only way to go!!

Re: trailers
 

I hava dual axle float on. It has brakes with a washout connection. It's very easy to launch and load w/o even getting my feet wet. Tides down here aren't very high tho'.

Re: trailers
 

We have tides so in the more northern parts of the country, that is why we use rollers.

racer...I wouldn't sweat another trailer w/ a short trip to the ramp like you got...til you're ready to make that trip...I've nursed along an old trailer and although it tows good (11 hr trip to FL and another 11 back last year), the $$ I've put in it woulda just about bought a new one...and then I'd HAVE a NEW one... 8) ...
