Tease. I was soiling my pants with anticipation

I think the black trailer should <i>roll over</i> for a better ride!

bigjessup 02-27-2003 11:06 PM

Shes a beaut!!!! <IMG SRC="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":-)" BORDER=0> Im am surprised that it didnt come with prop gaurd rollers, you going to install them yourself?

akman 02-27-2003 11:53 PM

Shawn it does have prop guard rollers you just have to look hard to see them in the picture. The trailer also has back up lights, rollers for guides instead of the solid ones, swing a way tongue, center rollers between the bunks up front, surge and electrical disc brakes.

bigjessup 02-28-2003 12:00 AM

Oh wow Im retarded those are actually very easy to see. Ya its a very nice trailer, is very simalar to mine, ie: back up light, etc... pretty much everything you listed.

That is awesome, I have never heard of painting a galvanized trailer, wish I had, cause I would have a yellow one if that was the case. How much more was it for the paint job?

turtle 02-28-2003 6:26 AM

I could afford the trailer!

cws_kahuna 02-28-2003 6:49 AM

That is sweet to have a painted galvanized trailer, I think they should all just come that way. Now I just want to see your boat on that trailer, or better yet in the water.

akman 02-28-2003 7:08 AM

The trailer will still stand up to the elements since it is galvanized, but the epoxy dipping makes the outside feel like it has a rubber coating over it. They did it before they put the electrical and all the hardware on it. It will still have that rough galvanized texture to it, but it looks WAY better in my opinion. The other thing we did was go with a channel type of framework instead of the tube type, it doesn't trap water, is way easier to clean and is built to handle the same weight of a standard tube framing. <BR> <BR>I did some checking around before we had it done, I looked at etching and painting, I looked at zinc coating, etching and painting. I checked with a few metal companies and they all said if you are going to do anything with a galvanized metal you should have it dipped in epoxy. The company that makes the trailers here in Southern California <a href="http://www.trailrite.com" target="_blank">www.trailrite.com</a> started doing it last year, the dealers cost was $400.

Man, that is sweet. Very classy.

fbroen 02-28-2003 8:37 AM

Hey Gramps, very nice looking trailer. I like the dip. Seems like a great idea to get another layer of protection on top of the galvanizing. <BR> <BR>When you say rubber coating, is it a little harder than that though so it won't be easily scratched? When I think epoxy I think like surfboard / gel coat hard, but that is not the feel to it?

How's the wake?<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/rofl.gif" border=0>

hockeyruss 02-28-2003 9:08 AM

Gramps, Thanks for the info. You should hook it up to your truck, and drive it thru some puddles to see what the wake is like for Bruce......
