which trailer is better

[jeffkrieger]

hi,
i hava a 1990 wellcraft 192 sport.19'2'' long.would the single axle work ok?The dual axle is in better condition,but i may have to cut the last row of rollers and a bit of frame off as it seems too long for the boat.
any and all opinions are welcome.
thanks,
jeff

Re: which trailer is better

The single-axle trailer looks too short.

Re: which trailer is better

You should also consider the weight rating of the trailers. The single axle trailer probably has a maximum axle capacity of 3500 pounds (boat and trailer weight combined). If the trailer weighs about 600 pounds, you can carry 2900 pounds of load at most. I'd guess your boat weighs more than that with motor, fuel and gear added in.
If it's a 2500 pound axle the load weight will need to be less than 1900 pounds.
