Lots of sand. I would just use standard trailer components. The sand
problem won't be any worse than it would be for a boat trailer. More hours
of immersion while the boat sits on a mooring will probably shorten the life
of the underwater stuff so I will put zinc's on everything and just plan on
replacing things every few years.

Comments and suggestions welcome:


What are you going to use for wheel bearings, and how are you going to
keep the sand out of them, assuming there is sand...
