Boat trailer value
Submitted by Ashen on Fri, 2014-07-11 13:25
Hi guys.
Just wondering if people know the value of a good used tandem trailer, suitable for boats up to 5.8 metres? I'm planning to upgrade my trailer so want to know what i can sell my old one for? Fully registered, all led lights working, minimal rust etc..
Thanks

Ok, 140 reads, no comments yet, ...... $1000 to $2000 if in very good nick. Rust and trailers isn't popular, so depending on the amount it maybe lower than $1000.

Quite a few variables , best
Quite a few variables , best bet would be to jump on gumtree and see what they are going for ...

Depends
All depends on condition but got $2500 on gumtree for a similar trailer and probably could have sold it half a dozen times in the first 24hrs.
Just have a look and see what they are going for atm

trhere is so many variables
trhere is so many variables without more info-brand, age, steel or ali, roller or skid, roller slipper or torsion before even mentioning condition.
And I imagine that if you are upgrading it, it may not be that good-at least that is what potential buyers may be thinking?

Pics
Put up some pics
i bought one last yr for 2k and it was pretty average but it's
Cleaned up well. I even thought about selling and trading up but it just gets dropped back in salt water each weekend.
spent last week painting and cleaning so now I'm keeping it. A new drive on road master is 7k so an old one gotta be worth 2.5

Thanks for the input, guys.
Thanks for the input, guys. The trailer still works fine but its not ideal for "drive on" which is what i would like.

Overated
Mine is a drive on bit I still wind her up. Done both and I prefer to winch
Some glass boats need the keel roller too.
