Where do you go from here?
So, you now have your boat but how will you get her to the water? And where will she be stored when waiting to splash? Hopefully, these questions have long been answered but just in case Defender Marine offers a great line of boat trailers and parts.
Step One: choose the best trailer for your boat and storage situation.
- Trailers can serve double duty ? both moving the boat from here to there and storing your inflatable in a safe spot.
- Defender Marine offers a line of bunk type trailers that haul boats up to 36 feet LOA and 18,025 pounds. Trailer bunks ? or rails ? diffuse the weight load and offer secure long-term storage without the threat of permanent divots or dents sometimes left by trailers with rollers. Inflatables, soft and rigid, are light enough to slide onto the bunks at the ramp. These single axle trailers are easy to maneuver and boast a powder coated surface over galvanized steel for a long life. Special orders can be made for dual/triple axel trailers as well.
- Defender Marine carries trailer brands that offer a 2-year warranty. Some offer up to a 5-year warranty, depending on brand.
Step Two: Boat Dollies, instead of a vehicle, may be the perfect solution for your maneuvering needs. Taking the idea one step further, one of Defender Marine’s boat dollies is a super handy tool at a minimum investment.
- Dynamic Dollies boat dollies are easy for one man (or lady) to maneuver.
- Dollies are designed for several sailboat brands ? Hobie, Sunfish, Flying Junior and Laser
- Dollies are available for inflatables and aluminum boats.
Good boat and trailer maintenance is the key to knowing the condition of your equipment and where flaws might arise in the future. Loose electrical fittings, broken lights and bad wheel bearings can all be fixed before they keep you from splashing your boat in the water. Check the condition of roller brackets, tie down straps, wheel nuts, guides and electrical harnesses on a regular basis and easily stay ahead of maintenance.
