I can't locate the Cheapskate thread!

Found this ad on C/L this morning:

https://corvallis.craigslist.org/tro/d/brand-new-all-aluminum/6503658880.html

** I don't know these guys or the company and have no association with them.  I just stumbled upon the ad when searching for something else. **

I drive past the place all the time on 34.
They've been there for several years.
This is very tempting.

Does anyone have any experience with these trailers?  I've been tempted too, and I'm currently in the market for one, needs to hold about 600 lbs.

Looks like pretty decent quality for the price. I'd go with this over the harbor freight trailer at similar price. I believe there's a guy that works for them that is a kayaker (remember seeing a post from him on the OKBF facebook page.)

Look like a quality product. It would be easy to custom weld a steel rack that can bolt on and hold your gear and yak. If anyone is interested in a custom rack let me know, I love to weld and it will only cost you material.

I saw that one coming, Mr. Jojo.

Now, does anyone know anything about these trailers?  I'd like to know if it's worth the drive up from Port Orford beforehand.  I hate to admit it, but it's getting harder to lift my kayak(s) up onto the truck rack every year...

I wonder how much a light trailer like that would bounce on the road? That would be my main concern.

Weigh all your gear tackle and boat/boats. You’ll be surprised how fast it increases the weight. Our chapter trailer more then doubled in weight.
