Anyone have any info on these? I am looking at buying a used boat one of these trailers and it is a couple states away, I would at least like to pick up some spare wheel bearings, but can't find any info to say which ones.

How about just taking some tools and a grease gun so you can inspect and service the old ones.

Well that is what I will do, but considering the age of the trailer and unknown history and I have to haul it a considerable distance, I would feel far more confident if I had a couple sets of bearings in the tool box. I just don't know which ones.

I guess you could buy many different sets of bearings and return the ones that don't fit.

I considered that, but my thought was, the only thing worse than being stranded on the side of the interstate with no replacement, would be to there with a bunch of replacements, none of which is the right one.

I'd call or email some outfit like iboats or e trailer and ask which are the 3 most commonly used sizes and get some of each. You can then return whichever ones don't fit. Not perfect, but it would hedge your bet a bit...
