tailer size
i was curious to see how many people have single axle trailers versus tandems?
|
Tandem here with brakes on only one axle.
|
I have had both under my V. The single can do the job fine. The tandem will do it much better. I do a lot of trailering and like...love having that extra axle under the boat. Everything rides so much better. I also think its great spreading the load over 4 bearing sets as opposed to two.
I could go on, but the bottom line is it really depends on how you use the boat. |
I have always used tandem/with brakes. When I bought the package in '89 it came with single axle, I bumped it to the tandem before taking delivery (thanks dad). Very happy and trailers beautifully. Farthest I've gone is from RI to Lake George and i have done that about six times.
|
I have towed my tandem trailer from IN to MA (2000 miles round trip) twice, and several trips of 300-500 miles round trip with no problems.
|
My tailer? I had a tingle, but now I have a double.
|
I had a single under mine for the first 5 years, was just fine, but when I had to replace I went with a double and there was a world of difference!!
If you can afford it go tandem, If not you will be fine with the right size single. |
I highly reccommend a dual axle trailer, that way when one of your axles falls off, like happened to me this weekend, you are not stuck in the road.
|
Me got the original one bought with the boat in 1975.
Single axle, will convert to dual ASAP. |
Twin axles here, I wouldn't want to pull it on 1.
