Re: Trailers
Hee hee - uhm just fine, thank-youverrrrrymuch
Let's see, the original one was welded by a truck stop monkey at 2am, and is now my spare.
My new one is mounted to a solid aluminum receiver and is cotter pinned with 300 ft lbs of torque applied. I think I'm good.
Headed to Biloxi Smokin' The Sound to work the races in late April, will let you know!! HA

Re: Trailers
I was at my marina the other day when a transporter was unloading - I cannot vouch for him, but he seemed to know his biz. He has three trucks specializing in boat movement, up to 60'. Here is his contact info, another possible resource??

Re: Trailers
Thanks Keith...Ill check em out...
Tom:
I spoke with Dan Jr @ Rolls. He has My deposit and building my trailer. I havent found anyone yet to deliver, Dan Jr said he may possibly have someone running north the 1st week in June and going as far as 2hr. South of PA. to pick up some machinery in a pick up and going up empty. He hasnt got to $$$ in that regards either. Thats cutting it close for me and abit too late for you I would assume. I may go for a run to get mine in Wilmington myself and my offer still stands for you. Dan says he hasnt heard from you since your initial contact. If I were you, I'd get the ball rolling and get a deposit to him asap. Dan says that sometimes this time a year he gets calls from people on the go and timing is the key. I want mine ready if thats the case..Otherwise Im goin for it myself..

Re: Trailers
OK Gary - let me know what you find. If you talk with Randy, tell him I was the guy at Marina Del Sol in League City Texas that told him of some guys in need of empty trailer (and possibly boat) moves, I gave him my personal card. I'm trying to build contacts with his type, so let me know if he's competitive - he was unloading a 22' Mako with twin clamp-ons from a LONG aluminum serious trailer, and he had just been around the USA......

Re: Trailers
OH,
I will send my deposit tomarrow. I was trying to figure this trasportation deal out. I'm spending 5G's to get the boat and trailer here. I can't live with another huge $ ammount for the trailer to get to Superboat. I would have no problem helping you with expenses and plus to help me out. As far as timing goes, what can I say?

Re: Trailers
Krak,
Just wondering if you had any dialog with Dan at Rolls trailers regarding the fittment of the boat on the trailer. They should be done next week. All Dan said was he has some measurements.
