what's it worth
I may have the opportunity to buy new trailer already set up for my exact hull but I want to know what my current trailer is worth approximately before I commit to buying the new trailer.
The trailer is an aluminum Quick Load triple axle with surge breaks. Not sure on the axle ratings but it has my 36 cigarette widebody on it approximately 10K lbs loaded. The trailer is in average shape and will probably need tires in the near future and the bunks will likley need to be replaced or adjusted to fit a new boat. I think you could probably get up to a 40ft boat on the trailer.
So anyway my question is in its current state what is its approximate value? I was hoping for 4K as new ones are 8500 and up. Here is a couple pics with the boat on it. I know they suck but that is all I have right now the boat is in storage.

I paid thirty five hundred for mine that is nearly identicle to that for my 38 Scarab except mine have nice rounded polished fenders. I would think 3500-4000 would be fair price for a good usable salt free piece.

Your right on, I sold a comparable trailer for 38' Fountain this summer for $3500. 2012 TNT, 5 out of 6 tires were new/er, surge brakes on 2 axles, guide poles, spare tires and rim, very basic bolt together trailer but It sold fast[ATTACH=CONFIG]563653[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]563654[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]563655[/ATTACH]

Thanks for the responses. As soon as I know if the trailer I am trying to buy is going to be available I will have this one in the classifieds.
