hello everyone.

i am looking into getting a small 9.4 Ft. Basstender boat.

its a pretty light boat that is roughly 175lbs (with trolling motor)

now, the prob is that i dont have a truck to load it on.

i have a 6 cylinder car.

what kind of trailer would i need to move it around?

and how big should it be?

approx how much does it cost (used)?

im sorry about all the questions. i am VERY new to boating. and dont want to buy the wrong stuff.

if there is anything else i should know... please advice me as well.

THANKS!!!!

Welcome! There's alot of great guys on here!

Now, what i've seen done for a trailer for a boat similiar to yours is the guy built a rectanguler frame the width and length of the boat. He made a fl;at bottom for it and welded a metal grate on the top to make a floor for it. Then he just put a hand wench on the front and tied down the rest of the trailer.

Check out the Castlecraft web site - their sut-250-s model might be just what you're looking for. . . . . sorry but I can't post the whole link - YET !

I have been using a similar model to tow around a 16 ft OLD Town Canoe and I really love it. You assemble it yourself and this trailer is very light weight - you could use it as a boat cart for short distances and fairly smooth terrain.

Good Luck
