Maybe I'm too far out of the loop, but C2,300.00 still seems a bit
steep to me.

Or , is that really about the going rate for a trailer like that?

$2300.00 CDN. Bit steep but it has capacity of approx double my boat
weight. i.e. 2200-2400 lbs vs boat weight of approx 1200.
The guy wanted to use 12' tires, but I insisted on 13" with 1300 lb cap
each...etc.




Yep...it's steep, but I've had other people with the same boat as mine
paying a similar price in Canada.
Don't know what a trailer like mine would cost south of the border.



ooops...just noticed..you're up here too!
I checked out the ShoreLander at a local dealer and the 'off the shelf'
unit without the add ons was about $500.00 cheaper. Once you started
adding.. eg.. swing away tongue at $208.00 the price creeped up.
