I have had both and they are both nice. Both tow good and look good. Manning is like an alkaseltzer in salt water but if you stay out of the salt save your money and buy a manning. NK

As mentioned earlier, Bill Tweedie of Myco was one of the most helpfull people I have ever encountered in the marine business. I had a new trailer in three days. Although I didn't like getting jammed for a new trailer it was better than losing the whole package. Here are some shots of the damaged trailer. It jackknifed completely around the transporters truck, and the boat never moved an inch. Buy the Myco.

Re: Myco vs Manning trailers, worth the $ ?
I've had both, a Myco under the Top Gun and the Manning under the Black Thunder. Both pulled great, I would pull 4 to 5 thousand miles per year. The only problems I ever had were with the Myco. It developed lots of cracked welds. I had to re-welded it and add gussets to stress points. For my money, I'll take the Manning.
