Thanks gents, it's really not a matter of being "in my budget" since my trailer only sees salt water I have to go and buy whatever is best for longevity. I got my W-2 from work today so hopfully I will get a nice return on my taxes and just go all out on the boat and trailer. So galvanized hubs you guys suggest ?

Looking good. Nothing instills confidence on the road like knowing you've covered the bases on your trailer maintenance.

nice job on the trailer rehab. did you put new axles in too? if i may add to blue herons trailer advice, definetly use the dedicated ground. i like to to use some 16/3 extension cord with the ends cut off. been going on 6 years with my lights mounted down low like you have. i like to use butt connectors without insulation and put my own adhesive heat shrink on top of that crimp. then i cover all 3 connections and the jacket of the extension cord with more adhesive heat shrink to keep salt water out of it. or move the lights up to the guide posts and never worry about it again.
