Personally, I would have had a new trailer also. New boat, new trailer.
Can't understand why anyone would put a new boat on a rusted old trailer.
Doesn't make sense to me.

Worth keeping a close eye on the new u-bolts as well if travelling over any rough stuff. It's suprising how much the corrugations can cause them to stretch from new.
In addition to using double nuts, I also use a dob of Silastic as another form of cheap insurance on nuts and bolts and screws etc (especially for number plates, lights etc).

hahaha wasnt rusted for starters it just wasnt worth saving had no way of getting it home so for 300 dollars in fuel to get back up there worth leaving behind building a new one and the frame has cost me 165 dollars
for the brand new one welding up tomorrow so the getaway will back on the water before ya know it. Yes if i had one of those money trees ideal thing would be to have a brand new trailer from the start well when ya trailer is suited for it then why waste money on a new one it wasnt the trailer that broke it was the u bolts that come undon or broke so they where brand new dont
know what else ya to do
