Trailer Vendors
 

Looking for a triple axle aluminum I-Beam and have narrowed down into the following vendors;

TechSun
Nextrail
Sportline (Loadmaster)
Hi-Tech

Can anyone provide feedback/experiences? Issue is that I am trying spend as little as possible because I want to upgrade to a larger boat in the next year or two however, do not want the future owner to have a crap trailer.

In case your wondering, I want a triple axle as Nordics come with triple and I want to maintain the look - even though a 7500 lb tandem would work fine. Thanks for feeback....

My friend has one of these trailers. They are local to you too.

Re: Trailer Vendors
 

Were you unhappy with the trailer that came from Nordic?

Re: Trailer Vendors
 

Not at all....it is really a nice looking trailer. The issue is that the previous owner dipped it in salt water a few times and it is deteriorating badly. I have had several folks tell me it is unsafe and in VA you need an inspection sticker on trailers that have brakes and I am having trouble finding someone to pass it :(

Re: Trailer Vendors
 

That really stinks. Sick Nordic's trailer is holding up pretty well going in and out of the salt water up here. It looks like a pretty beaffy trailer.... And towed the boat well.

Re: Trailer Vendors
 

Look below the paint, after my experience with Nordic trailer I wouldn't trust it as far as I could throw it!! Nice trailer for fresh water however. That's my old boat that he's talking about...Shawn, have you looked at So. Florida Trailers?

Steve - great to hear from you! Boat is doing great however, trailer is toast. Yes, I did actually look at them...someone on the board pointed me there. I never got to pricing as I tried to stick with larger manufacturers as it seems they can be more competitive with pricing. What do you know of them?

I bought a Hi-Tech trailer this year for my boat and Love it!!! I would highly recommend these people for a trailer. They were great to deal with.

Craig....can you drop me a PM and let me know what you got and what you paid for it (if you don't mind me asking). Thanks!

Try 1stcoasttrailers.com 1-800-293-4586 They are Loadmaster trailers but they are cheaper than loadmaster sells them. I don't know how but they are. I bought one a year ago and my buddy just bought one. THE CHEAPEST PEOPLE!

Good luck with that. I'm not sure if you are aware of it or not, but Aliison Hi-Tech buys trailers from Hi-Tech and puts their stickers on them. Same trailer, don't know about price. Some people on here have bought a trailer from Allison and not had a problem, but quite a few have gotten excuse after excuse about why their trailer is late or doesn't fit....that's if they could get ahold of B.B. :cool:

It's a 15,000 lb triple axle
electric over hyd. disc brakes
radial tires-aluminum wheels
extra middle and front center bunks
full-frame trailer with a removable drive guard
led lights
diamond plate fenders and step plates
spare tire and wheel


$8 G's out the door. I think that the base price was like $5600 before the "extras".

i bought a new loadmaster in 2003 for my 38 donzi that is just under 11k pounds dry and have really liked the way it tows. i travel 7 hours roughly one way on weekends and happy with it. i had one axle problem and they were excellent to work with and paid for the bill in full. it was under 7k out the door.

Re: Trailer Vendors
 

I just had a TechSun built for my Thoroughbred. Excellent quality. They welded the bunk supports, instead of bolting them. Looks very trick and it less flexible than bolting. I'm very happy with mine...
