Wider Axle or New trailer?

[LA_Gas_Man]

I think my trailer looks too small for my boat. I'm thinking that if I could get a wider axle I could get the wheels to sit outside of the boat instead of under it. Or do you guys think I would just have to look for another trailer?

I think it looks OK. Are you towing really long distances or does the boat weigh more than it looks?

If you want a wider axle, I figure you'll spend more modifying than the cost of a wider trailer.

No, the trailer WORKS fine, I just think it LOOKS too small for the boat.

Looks perfectly fine to me. Go fishing instead.

That setup is like a 12 pack of Old Milwaukee ... It doesn't get any better then that. Hook it up and go fishing.

maybe a different color trailer would not make the boat look so fat on the trailer????? :LOL2:
