In case anyone wonders.

Loadmaster "Aluminum" Trailer, 5100# capacity, with Carpeted Cypress Bunks
& Front Boards , Tandem Torsion Axles, Aluminum Wheels, Radial Tires,
Spare Wheel, Tire & Hub mounted on Frame, All Stainless Steel Fasteners
(except on galvanized steel parts, I assume), et cetera.
$3845. Florida manufacture.

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.



For some reason aluminum trailers don't seem to be popular up here.
Would they be much more expensive than a similar galvanized version south of
the border?



About $500 more from one vendor for the size I have in mind.

Well worth the difference if you have a heavy boat and launch in salt
water.
