Mike Hall Posted August 31, 2018 Report Posted August 31, 2018 Hi all I'm after a trailer to move a Wilson flyer 20 next week sometime might consider buying if at the right price . Local trailer hire place won't name them still have boat trailer hire on their website but when I called them he said oh no we just transport boats now ! We don't hire trailers anymore and you won't find any one across the south who does! So now I'm in the proverbial poo as I bought the boat on the assumption and (their website )that I could hire a trailer to move it . Any other ideas chaps ? Mike Hall Quote

jerry.shutter Posted August 31, 2018 Report Posted August 31, 2018 Mike, you should be able to hire a flat bed car trailer and balance the hull using old tyres then ratchet strap it. It’s not an ideal situation but would do the job if you have some muscle to help you. Hope you sort it. Jerry Jim 1 Quote
Coddy Posted August 31, 2018 Report Posted August 31, 2018 I think you will find it is due to water in the bearings/brakes that they have stopped hireing out trailers. If you hire a flat bed I expect there will be a clause to restrict any water immersion which means it will have to be lifted on and off the trailer which all adds costs. Quote
Rob Posted August 31, 2018 Report Posted August 31, 2018 I am enjoying my 6th year of the same sealed bearings! AJ said he had them so I was ensured to get them for mine. So far so good!R Quote
