Just lost a wheel bearing on the trailer for my 1992 221. While jacking it up I discovered that the bottom of the main support square tubing is paper thin. The trailer is a roller trailer manufactured by the now defunct Long Trailer Company. Time for a replacement.
Looking for recommendations on what the members have found to work well. I have only ever used roller trailers but bunk style trailers certainly have less to maintain. I would be curious about how people find loading and unloading boats of this size on bunk trailers. The boat is kept on a salt water slip so the trailer is only used twice a year for launch/haul. The boat is also stored on it during the offseason. The roundtrip ride each season is less than 5 miles.
Also, my current trailer has two keel rollers and most of the newer model trailers do not seem to have them??
