[Public-List] A30 Trailer

[Don Lang]

It would have a transferable title.
I estimate I can build it for between $3,500 -$4,500 depending on what extras I 
rig it with.
That's  with all new components with the exception of two items I've owned for a  
while; an electric trailer winch & a utility box that would be  bolted onto the 
trailer. 

That's using two 7k Dexter axles (a fellow A30 owner pointed out 6K was to close 
to maxing the rig out  so I upped them) complete with electric brake wheel 
assemblies, EZ lube  hub kits, equalizers, 235 80/16 radials, breakaway kit, 
fenders, jack,  led lights and markers, 2-5/16 hitch assembly. Standard A-frame 
construction with mast support. Primed  trailer painted with Phantom black gloss 
paint (Mercruisers paint, very  tough and durable, the stuff is amazing).
Comparable trailers from Triad or sailtrailers.com go  for double that and up 
depending on the extras package.
I'm not  building this one for profit, my labor is free this round. I'm happy to  
get the boat to the coast and recover a chunk of what I would have paid a  
commercial hauler and call it good.
When  I take my boat to the coast I will have a travel lift remove her from  the 
trailer so the trailer will have never seen salt water.
The truck is a 1997 3/4 ton dodge ram 2wd with a turbocharged Cummings diesel, 
A/C, electric brake and tow  package. Price is negotiable, looking for fair 
market value. 

Noteworthy; the 3/4 ton can tow more than a one ton, a one ton can carry more 
but tow less.
here's a picture of the truck
