trailer for fountain
#4
I think it's a personal preference. Tandem probably has 16" tires, triaxle probably has 15" tires. Tandem turns easier, tri will distribute the weight across an extra axle. Around here, the extra axle costs you more through any toll booths. I'd be up in the air as to which to go with, but would probably go with the triaxle with the boat being so long. I'd also get brakes on all axles...
Good luck!

i have a 35 fountain and have a tri-axle trailer its the way to go unless your gonna use it twice a year locally the two-axle will do. besides local use i run mine to fla. from n.y. twice a year and it works well with the tri on a long run.

Sonic,
I have had both tri axle trailers and tandems. Currently I have a tandem axle trailer on a 10 meter fountain. The trailer is a steel myco tandem axle. I really like it. It is easy to turn and maneuver especially in tight spaces. I have no problem towing down the road. If you go with a tandem for a 35 fountain I'm positive you will be happy with it.

My thoughts exactly - when coming out of my driveway was real tight turn and always expected to break a bead. Also parked on hill in backyard overnight once and the spring broke (sounded like a nuke going off) from too much pressure. Tandem would have had 2 heavier springs per side and doubt would have broke
