I keep my boat in dry rack storage so the trailer isint a must for me. Until we wanna go on a trip and wanna travel and take it somewhere. So today I don’t need a trailer but at some point it’s in my future. I never looked at bots before with out a trailer but I was also pulling back and forth to the lake. Never considered one without a trailer before. I know I would want one but do I get a custom built brand new one that will just sit or do I try to find something used and let it sit. I know it’s my call to make. Just gotta do the research.

DO NOT order a trailer from Manning. I ordered one in August for our 382, supposed to be a 6-8 week build time, it has now been 5 months! Terrible communication. Supposedly still waiting on axles. Every other manufacturer has been able to keep to a 6-10 week schedule. If I didnt have to put down such a large deposit I would have canceled my order already.

I love my Owens and Sons. It’s now twenty years old and they still support me with parts and advice. Top-notch, family run business.
Not taking away from Manning. Great trailers, but over here with the salt, the aluminum has been great. Also, if you’re questioning the towing capabilities of your truck, the aluminum is a coupon two/three thousand pounds lighter.

I highly recommend you find something far safer and better than the manning junk. My manning trailer is pure junk, damaged the boat and doesn't fit the hull properly.

Update: Guess the broker doesn’t wanna make the commission. I’ve left messages and emails and have heard nothing back. Shame that it’s like this but maybe that’s just a sign to move on. Anyone know of any others for sale. Looking for blue motors and preferably ac/heat and a generator
