Buying new boat trailer - recommendations?

[frozenpod]

Mackay roller trailer best design and quality IMO.

Dunbier bought Mackay out years ago and manufacture them side by side.

There's Easytow and Savage. Then you've got the import and put together here Precision and Towrex.

Owned by Dunbier by yes but still the Mackay design which is superior.

The Mackay design is unique as it allows the hull to sit lower, lower CG better for towing, easier to launch and retreive.

My mackay trailer rusted out so badly. Admittedly it was still 15 years old when it was condemned

I vote for savage. Not cheap. But then again nothing is these days. I'd go c section if I were buying again. My savage is a box section. 2017 model

There's a small part of me that's considering knocking up a c section trailer in the same dimensions as my savage and flogging off the savage given it's still in great Nick and the prices are ridiculous these days. But I give that a 5% chance.

Hi folks,

My 22 year old dual axel trailer needs to go.... (Not bad given the constant salt water use). I need to buy a new dual axel one for a 5.75M glass boat ASAP. Fully rollered. I want to support local biz. as much as possible.
There seems at least two key local companies - one has very long lead times. One doesn't seem to - makes me worry a bit why...
WIthout slagging off a local company publicly can anyone give any recommendations on trailer brand? (or PM me directly if you have a bad story).
I'm thinking of sticking with steel but open to comments/suggestions.

Thanks in advance

Was at my local marine joint today they had 2 new savage trailers delivered I beam gal they look very well made

PM sent - if you share your experience.

Also, can anyone recommend a trailer repairer around Melbourne (need to replace a bent axel)
