Trying to Identify Manufacturer

[Capt Masterson]

Trying to identify the manufacturer of this tilt boat trailer I recently acquired for my aluminum 12 foot Feather Craft. The previous owner had removed the factory data plate when he titled it as a homemade trailer with a state assigned VIN #. It has 4.80/4.00 x 8 tires on integral hub wheels and 3/4 inch spindles. The original winch stand and bow stop were toast sos I transplanted an old Holsclaw one I had on hand. I need to buy a couple bunk brackets for the forward end of the bunks and do away with the pressure treated 2x4s currently installed. I would also like to eventualy replace the integral hub wheels with bolt on type.

The fenders and the rollers look a lot like my Gator trailer.

Capt,
I can't help you with a manufacturer, but it looks like a simple, solid unit.
The axle/spindle assembly looks like a relatively easy switch out.
I would like to see some detailed photos of the bow stop assembly. Our Feather Crafts have a very sharp cutwater and that bow stop looks like it would work well. I want one!
