Owen, run over or call Kevin at Sport Trail he might have an Idea for you on that. 5232 U.S. 90 Bay St. Louis, MS 39520 (228) 467-1885
when i die bury me deep, put a bucket of bait at my feet, put a rod and reel in my hand and i will fish my way to the promised land !!!! remember we did not inherit these resources from our parents, we are merely borrowing them from our children |

Have you tried U-Haul or some such business?

I would try the Boat Yard on the westbank. They have so much "stuff" over there I would be shocked if they didn't have a old pontoon boat trailer to rent to you. If no success, try a boat dealer that sells pontoon boats. Some folks don't want a trailer with a new pontoon boat, so the dealer probably has an old pontoon trailer they use to "deliver" a new pontoon boat to the customer.

Winkfish has an Idea. measure the width of the boat from the center of the left pontoon to the center of the right pontoon. they might have one wide enough, if not check with an equipment dealer.

i've called a good number of places from Lafayette to Gulfport and haven't had any luck. Boatyard and other places one would expect to find one didn't have any, and nobody knew of anyone renting. seen a few on used boats for sale, but nobody has wanted to sell just the trailer. I cant afford to pay the cost of the new aluminum ones, which are the only ones I have seen available. I'm going to keep calling/asking around. Thanks for any and all suggestions.

what Winkfish and I are thinking is that you might be able to rent a flat bed trailer and load her up
