A tilt trailer that can be used in salt water is actually a very new concept. Tilt trailers have historically been steel due to the hydraulics and the forces of the tilted boat during transport. Steel isn't very accommodating to salt and nobody wants to ruin their $100K trailer so they use marinas with fork lifts or cranes to launch their boat. This is just another example of the few folks that are actually putting money and resources to furthering powerboating! Kudos to Scott, Pier57, Mystic, Myco and the whole team!!!!

All Lugo tilt trailers for the last 7 years have a 5 year warranty on the main framerails. He just preps them correctly

Yep, I know someone who dips their Lugo tilt in salt regularly. It's called time off and proper maintence!! Oh and Skater does build the best trailers, and they are a boat company. Lol

Great idea, but this isn't the first one Myco has built. An MTI owner had one of these built months ago. It was actually finished back in Aug. however the build did take a very long time

I have never figured out what the big problem is with just using stainless to build a trailer with instead of galvanized that if you are dipping the trailer on a regular basis does not last that long before it starts to rust

Stainless tube when I bought it years ago was not that much in the scheme of things and certainly not in a 100 thousand dollar trailer.

I bought some stainless square tube years ago and had Rocket build me some torsion axles out of it because I didn't like the fact that with the galvanized the torsion's would rust at the weld.It wasn't that much more and I bet those axles are still going strong 12 years later.

I used to dip my trailers twice a day 6 times a week they go to hell fast when you are doing that.
