Got my new trailer today

[RZMike]

I've been working on getting a new trailer since back in August when I bought the boat. I finally decided to order a Prestige and I picked it up today! It's a really nice trailer. Their attention to detail is excellent. Now I just have to get the boat moved over onto it. :(

Well, I tried to insert a picture, but I can't seem to figure it out. If you want to see it you'll have to click on the link. Best I can do for now. :confused:

Here's a bigger shot - -

Yes, it has the same color down the center of the hull.

The trailer came with the oil lubricated hubs too. I wasn't expecting that :D

How much does a trailer like that sell for?

It's a long story, but in the end I got it for $3999.95.

I have a 1999 Prestige trailer on my 2200V. It has never been near salt water and I have been vigilant in caring for it. The downside is I had surge brake problems when it was new and had to have the whole system replaced, and now the trailer is rusting out....


Painted trailers look sweet but I will never again own another one....Galvanized is the way to go.

I agree shane. I really wanted an aluminum trailer for mine, but there aren't any local builders in my area. I made numerous inquiries by phone and email to various aluminum trailer manufactors. Just about all said "sure we can build one for your boat" , but none could say they had built one for a Tige' or even an inboard before. In the end I wasn't confident I would be happy with an aluminum trailer. There's a long thread about the whole issue at trailerboats.com
