If you look closely at the top of the jack stand that is the cap off the Rust-O-Leum paint can that fits like a glove after a little trimming.. Total cost, about $400 soup 2 nuts.
 Don't tell the wife..

Looks good Ridge. I saw the rustoleum cap and got a laugh. Do you REALLY need a 2 speed winch for a flats boat?
I will be sending my V20s trailer your way soon. Needs fenders, bunk brackets, two crossmembers, 4 springs, 4 hubs, and a new tongue.

how does she tow with the single axle? I really considering going this route because of less maintenance.

Thanks for the kind words, hope it lasts another 16 years.
Cterrebonne- Single axle because the boat is fairly light, I don't know about going with a single under a V-20 but RWilson does. The trailer is pretty much stock, it came with the 2 speed winch. Loadmaster builds a decent trailer IMO. Reel, I wish I knew the answer to the annodized question. If it had the finish, it doesn't now. The moment I started rubbing with the compound I got the telltale black from the aluminum. The fenders were the same, I think it is not anodized but will try to keep something on it to protect it from here. I am thinking Woody's because it is easy.

Both RW and myself use single axle trailers. I've trailered my V20 boat from Florida to New Jersey without a hiccup. My V21 has a dual axle, but that's just because it came with it when I bought it. To my way of thinking, as long as your trailer is rated for the load it's carrying, it really doesn't make any difference if it's single or dual axle. (Although dual axels are a little more forgiving if you get a flat).
