    Greg,

    I had it made by All-American Trailer in Ft. Lauderdale. Jim Haas knows the owner well and put us together.

    It was custom built the way I wanted it, with a lot of input from others more knowledgeable. Foremost, it was made for the 22 and to fit in my new garage. The boat/trailer combo had to be less than 32' from the end of the coupler to the back of the drive. Single axle makes it easy to maneuver and saves a bunch on the tolls around here.

    It has been reliable. The only issues I had were with the torsion axle, was replaced twice, and a tire. Neither was the fault of the builder.

    The word that comes to my mind when I see this trailer is "Battleship"!

    BTW, you should have seen his old trailer......I had to rescue him once on the side of the road when it was literally falling apart. The disparity between the old and the new is beyond comparison.
    The old trailer just happened to come w/the boat....nothing to do w/Bob.

The finish is a commercial epoxy/paint chip system from Marbelite. http://www.marbelite.com/terralite.htm It came out real well. Here is a close up of the finish product.

    Thanks for the reply which I just now saw. That floor is stunning! Good luck with the boat sale - it is a gem. Bill

    Thanks Bob, very very nice. That must have been an expensive trailer to have built. Looks great as does the boat.

    the price was VERY fair, when you drop an axle, 2 alum wheels, and 2 tires and a brake assy from the invoice.. then you put some money back into an inch thicker main beam, HD actuator yada yada I have towed it about 1300 miles myself and it is awesome

    For a limited time, my boat will be available without the trailer as an option. To clarify, until further notice, you can buy the boat, or the boat and trailer combo.

    Nice Boat!

    Good Luck with the sale; she sure is a sweethart!
    I've been thinking I don't use mine enough; we use our 17'cc twice as much. I just can't see myself parting with her just yet.
    Thank you, Patrick
