Thread: Need John boat trailer

I use a 5x8 flat bed trailer for my Coleman Crawdad 12footer. I just back the trailer in and float the boat off. I use cargo straps and a yard sale "come along" as a helping hand sometimes. Red flag out the rear when on hwy.

I bought my E Z loader trailer from a dealer on rt 1 in FT Pierce. EZ Loaders are assembled in FL near FT Pierce but they wont sell direct.
They seem to be a fairly popular trailer as i see quite a few at the launch sites.
Im not at home at this point but will be in a few days and can post the name of the dealer.
Mine is an 800#capacity with 12” wheels and a 2” ball size coupler.
