New Aluminium Trailer ?

[Win]

paj637,
Where did you buy your replacement trailer. I am in the market for a similar trailer. I would appreciate any information you care to share about dealer service and price. Feel free to send PM if you prefer. Thanks

I need a new one too! My 2005 Mac 26 M painted trailer is getting pretty rough!

For those in the mid Atlantic area I bought a dual axel aluminum trailer from Westco trailers, through Chatlee Marine, in NC cost $3500 with torsion bar axles, SS brakes and LED lights. Tows like a dream. Let me know if you'd like more info

Westco is on my list. I have a friend in Charlotte that has a Westco trailer for his go fast (second childhood) boat. He says Westco is fantastic to deal with. Being the tightwad that I am, I am hoping that we are in a buyers market. I will not know though until I try to negotiate. Thanks for your input.

Macgeek299,
Where are you located? Maybe we can get a better price if we buy in bulk. At least it's worth a shot. Set up should be the same for both boats.

Win, Macgeek, and others in the mid-atlantic, let me know an I can call Westco and talk to the owner and maybe get the ball rolling for you. I too did my homework on trailers and different manufacturers and Westco did have problems on occation but it was the way the customer felt he was treated that sold me. I had to drive over 300 miles to drop the boat off so thay could ensure a proper fit. The drive back was sure better than the drip out

[Uncle Jim]

Red,
I'll be traveling all week andcan't get to my contacts list untill next Sunday. I'll get a email out to Westcon on Monday and see what he has to say.

Versatile,
Interesting thread you've started. Good to hear that you are now satisfied with the dual axel.

Torsion bar suspension... I wonder how it seals off the salt water.
What maintenance can I do now to prevent any later.

Kind Rgds
