Need trailer for my 405
Moving my boat to Pickwick in about a month and want to buy a trailer for it. Will be used very little other than to bring it to the water and later to haul it out. Do not want the top of the line but also will not take a cheap piece of crap. Has to be a bumper pull with a weight of 15000 lbs. Let me know of a manufacturer to call or a nice used one for a decent price.

Up here now. Was going to get a slip at Aqua but decided to keep her indoors on trailer at old Pier 57 Building. They will launch it and put back up when I'm finished.

Put an aluminum welded Manning under it.
I would not put that boat on an I-beam aluminum bolt together trailer. (I have even seen aluminum I-beam trailers which are double-stacked I-beams, but still would not recommend this.)
Do not go with less than 3 - 6K lbs axles; no matter what you think your boat weighs.
1) You get what you pay for.
2) Putting an aluminum trailer under it exponentially expands your resale market.
There are literally thousands of threads here on OSO about choosing the right trailer.
