    Default WTB or WTT Tandem Axle Trailer

    Tried this awhile back with no luck but thought I'd try again. I know this is a long shot but the dealer wasn't any help except to tell me to possibly get on here to find something. I'm hoping that I can find someone interested in switching trailers. I have a single axle trailer and want a tandem. I contacted boatmate and found it is not practical to change it due to I would have to change both axles due to the axle rating. So I'm trying to see if there is someone who keeps there boat on a lift or doesn't tow far that might be interested in switching trailer. My single axle trailer and possibly cash for a tandem axle trailer. I just want the little bit of extra piece of mind when it comes to me towing my boat from Indiana down to Mississippi and Texas. That is a long ways to go on a single axle. Also contacted a local trailer place about putting axles under mine and that wasn't much luck either.

    Same crappy dealer experience here. I guess there is not market for used boat trailers anywhere?

    I made the jump back in '11. Put your trailer on Craigslist. You'd be surprised about the demand for good inboard trailers. I sold mine to a guy with a Mastercraft and picked up a dual axle from Boatmate. Dual axle provides a lot of piece of mind and just pulls better. BM was a pleasure to deal with, but they don't bargain. They have enough business. Did give me a military discount. Trailer was ready amd waiting when they said it would be. Good people.

    I looked for an inboard trailer a few years back. Took several months to find a good one. Between salt on roads up north and salt in the air and water down south there is a bit of a demand for them. Trick is finding one within 5 or 6 hundred miles.

    No go direct from Boatmate due to agreements with SC. Reaching out to the big boss to see what if anything could happen through SC.
