Looks like a lot of timber in there.

Empty a jar of termites in the boat and should slowly disappear.

I am rebuilding a trailer at the moment, I personally dont want to see you get trapped in the same position as me.
I dont know exactly the condition of your trailer but mine looked OK as well, until I stared pulling it down, and then things just escalated. New Springs, New U-bolts, New Gal coating, New Brakes. I think I'm at the $1800 mark now and still have a bit to go.
Yes cheaper than new but doesn't matter what I do its still not new.
If you need to change any of your parts PM me I can give you some advice as I have just been there.

Thank you katoh,,, mines like brand new its only been in the water once. how i know because i brought it someone i know. also the only promblem is i got VERY little surface rust on the axels so i am just going to sand it and paint it and should be ok.

Thing is when i brought my boat i didnt relize what the trailer looked like untill i got home!!
(FIRST BOAT
So i had to repair it tooooo but you wont belive what it looked like. have a look
was not even worth spending money on it but i didnt no anything so i fixed it. but know i want to replce it with the one i got. Took 2 weeks to fix.



Good luck with your trailer hope all turns out well.

If I could cat-call over the forum I would, Good looking trailer.
Yep being there with the first boat thing and made heaps of mistakes, funny thing I still am!
Good one and good fishing to you, I hope to be on the water by next fishing season, around March when all the pelagic's run down the east coast. If I ever get the trailer and boat together again.

Well Done
Katoh
