No dissin here! It just seems you guys are looking at steel trailers under older boats. New Technology according to the guys at Instigator. I`m by far a structural engineer, so I believe them.
Didn`t mean to get away from the subject at hand, but it happens.
Boat will still be available in the spring....!

Many, if not most, of the aluminum rail trailers stop just aft of the rear axle. The front axle is usually real close to the step location on 27 or 29 Fountain, so it looks about right to me.
My friend may be interested in selling his 1996 27 with HP500 on an Eagle trailer that he bought from me about 8 years ago. I think he had it in the water 2-3 times in the last 5 years. It has lightning graphics and would probably be in your price range ... I'll ask him and post a picture of it ... I have many, many pictures of that boat. It was the first Fountain I owned.

I wasn`t looking for any opinions about my boat & trailer. But anywho, this trailer was custom built to my boat, a 27` stepped hull Fountain, torsion axles, elec. brakes. I was like you, it seems out of proportion. But it tows like a dream dude! If you look at the pics it fits the boat exactly! Perfectly balanced. Look at other custom trailers under Fountains, they look the same. Maybe you should stick to the Baja Forum. . . !
