I agree $2500 is alot, but if you go anywhere near saltwater, aluminum is a must. You may find a used aluminum in the $1200-1500 range if you're lucky. I probably put well over $1000 into my previous galvanized trailer over the last five years. 3 sets of leaf springs, axle, bearings, hubs, bearings again, winch, tongue hitch, lights, new lights on PVC posts. The salt is relentless. Get aluminum.
What sucks is that my project V also came with a beat up galvanized trailer, so I've got to make the same decision as you. I'll save up for an aluminum.
