What are you going to store on the flat upper portion above the goose neck? Anything specific?

$71K is totally ridiculous. No wonder boats with used trailers are so expensive. Nice work! You got the facility and the skill set to pull this off. I would have had to sell the old trailer and find one that would work. Question, why a trip axle instead of dual with heavy axles and semi tires?

thanks ! Took a while did it when I had time. I enjoy metal working a bit. Metal was pretty cheap to redo the crossmembers and rest was just time. There isn’t very much to these trailers just some metal and welds

It gets a flat piece of plate and there will be a 2nd spare tire and 2 boxes one for tools and one for cleaning stuff.

Did this yourself in your shop, or had someone do this? I'm looking to have some trailer work done in a similar fashion.
