will church Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 Hi all I have been let down by a local dealer who I agreed to buy a trailer from, gave credit card details, and when I came to pick it up after they were putting new brakes, hydraulics etc in 'there was a problem with it' (or maybe they sold it to someone else for more, it;s not in their yard anymore!) Unfortunately in between doing the deal and finding out, I sold my slightly older trailer! So i now need something braked that will take a Shetland 536, total boat and engine weight just over 700kg. So if you're upgrading or know of one, I'd be interested. Many thanks in advance for any help Will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Nash Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 I have one on ebay at the moment Will. It's old, rusty axles, creaks and groans but it had my ton and a half boat on it in the boat yard and it coped fine (could have been doing with some more air in the tyres, thats all). I dont think i'd use it for long runs on the road but it's fine for the yard. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/150899368785?ssP...984.m1555.l2649 Probably not as good as the one you sold, but I bet it doesnt cost anywhere near as much either. I'm away the weekend but let me know if you wanna look. Graham. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

will church Posted September 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2012 Thanks Guys - as usual, I'm looking for something in between the two offered. Both look like good things, but I omitted the details: my price range is up to around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted September 18, 2012 Report Share Posted September 18, 2012 Good luck with your search Will. I'm taking MegaByte to Rockley tomorrow, so will put my trailer on Boats and Outboards in a day or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
