That is one sweet trailer!  And fear not, even though I have some boats to play with right now...

There's still plenty of room.  The H-S on the left and the yellow McKee Craft should be gone at the end of the week...

Aaron,
Looks sweet dude, I know that must be night and day pulling  :cheers: .  I think I would re-think that ratchet strap though, to me it looks like over time, its going to wear the paint on the corner of the transom?? That would suck to scuff that sweet paint job?? Just my .02... Have a good one.

Agree with Marc - maybe one long strap pulled over the gunwale?  That's how I strap mine down.

Sweet trailer.  I'd like to find an aluminum I-Beam trailer like that with some busted axles and tires that I could get pick up for cheap and mount the torsion axle I have now to the frame.

Your boats come a long way - looks great!  :cheers:

the trailer pictured above, i wont be buying. although its a nice trailer, the guy wants more than i want to pay for it, he's still letting me borrow it while SB plays with the boat.

another customer of mine who lives at the end of my street needs to get rid of is trailer, as our code enforcement will start fining him for it being in his yard... just needs bunks re-carpeted, bearings repacked... 900 bucks! plus he's flexible on payments, and when i can pay him, just as long as its out of his yard by 9/1

Man, $900 for a dual aluminum...that's a deal right there!

So how does Tuesday sound to you, Aaron?  Be better for me, but if Monday is good, that's fine.  Might ask you to move a 22 H-S for me, so I can put your boat where I want it.  The H-S is done, but haven't heard from the owner today...

Aaron,
Tomorrow works.  Give me a call this eve, 727-808-1429.  Come on up anytime you want.  Easiest is 275 to the Veterans.  Yeah, you pay toll, but traffic going north is a piece of cake.  If you want to avoid tolls, stay on 275, get off at Bearss, turn right on Florida Ave., straight up to 50, west on 50...
