Re: Trailer for 23 Inboard
Hookdude,
Glad you posted this, as I have a couple of questions as well.
But you first. Most small inboard trailers have a rear cross-member with a dip in the center for road/ramp grounding protection. Check out a ski boat dealer as they and Slamrock are about the only small inboards left out there. You`ll see what I mean. The bunks should be fairly tight to the strakes and bunks angled on top to match the hull. Then you`ll need to weigh the whole thing and move the winch stand forward or aft to get @ 5% tongue weight on the ball. A trailer shop can do this in about an hour.
I`ve noticed a lot of you salty old pretzels run hot dipped galvanized trailers and rollers. I get the roller part. I have an aluminum float on with dis-similar metal issues.
Would a galv float on out last an alum float on?
Are they more rigid?
Do they ride better?
Favorite brand?
