Wondering if anyone has recommendations for a replacement trailer for the 26D for salt water use? My galvanized trailer is getting old and showing some rust. Aluminum vs. Galvanized steel, brand, pricing, ect, etc. Thanks, Michel G.
There is an outfit in FL that is making trailers for our boats. I think I found it with a simple google search... Galvanized was like 3,500 Aluminum was 4,500 - both with dual axles.
After seeing those prices, I just went out and bought an old dual axle bass boat trailer and fitter new bunks to it to hold my Mac 26D. I bought it for 650, and I think I spent like a grand on fixing it up - including 4 new tires. I added some little welding projects that you wouldn't necessarily need to do, but otherwise it was pretty straight forward.
Here's the album of what I did: http://forums.sailboatowners.com/index.php?media/albums/new-trailer.3543/
