sounds WAY high to me..... I'd get a second opinion.... BTW there never were any bunkers on your trailer... bunkers are holes in the ground...
It's bunk as in bed IE where the boat sleeps. You should be able to buy a NEW trailer for 2k or so |

For $2000 you could definitely buy a new trailer for your boat or at least a good used one. It's easy to dump more money into a trailer than its worth. Five grand should get you a nice trailer with another V20 on it.

5 grand is WAYYYY too high. Hell, 2 grand is nearing my threshold for a new trailer. Check on Craigslist, I'll bet that you can find a really nice tandem trailer for less than $1500. It took me less than 3 minutes to find this one on CL. http://longisland.craigslist.org/boa/4482682005.html

Destroyer, that trailer is way too beautiful to back it down the ramp into saltwater.
A week ago I bought a "LONG" brand roller trailer like Skunkboat's for $500. Tandem axle, galvanized, electric winch, no rust except for some surface rust on the springs, built like a tank. Needs 3 keel rollers replaced and has one mismatched wheel. I will say this, Working on old rusty boat trailers sucks and working on one that's not even your own sucks even more. I'll bet a good part of that 2 grand is labor.
