In case anyone wonders.

LoadRite "Aluminum" Trailer, 4200# capacity, remaining pieces and parts
about the same, but with no front boards and no spare wheel, tire & hub.
$3100. Pennsylvania or North Carolina manufacture.

I've got a Loadmaster under my 25' Parker and have found it to be a top
of the line boat trailer, with absolutely no problems, rust, corrosion,
or even burned out lights.

These are "Mid-Atlantic" prices, subject to dealer pricing oddities.




On the Loadmaster. the stainless brakes add $265 and the spare wheel,
tire and hub and bracket, $250. The trailer guy says he no longer is
recommending stainless brakes, though, because they take a while to cool
properly after being on the road and there have been problems with
them being backed into the water while they are hot.
