My new home made trailer
Submitted by fishy fingers on Sat, 2008-12-20 18:58
Well it's finaly finnished...I started it in June...I think but due to financial constraints it's took a bit longer than expected but I finaly got there seeing as I'm not a welder it's not a bad job if I do say so myself! all up it cost me about $2500 to build would have cost way more to buy one with 32 wobble rollers on it!

Loved it
good solid fibreglass boat sitting on it to, loved it when Bob got the new trialer he asked me what do you think I said great but you have missed one thing and duh he said you forgot the boat guide (call it that) holds the boat while he winghes it on, fantastic now in a surge day getting the boat on up at Leeman, no huffin' and puffin' trying to hold a 1 ton boat while he retrieves it. Money well spent

Fishing isn't a matter of life or death, it's much more serious than that!!!
