Rapide roller 1 trailer
Rapide Roller 1 swing coaster boat trailer £500 ONO - open to offers
This is the trailer my father and I have had our 15ft fishing boat on since we bought the whole set up as a package in the 90s. We've owned it from new and it's been looked after. The boats my pride and joy so I've always made sure the trailer is sound. The trailer is probably best suited to a 13-14 ft boat but never had any issues with ours.
Specifics:
- Galvanised and clean
- Plate says 210kg unladen, 550kg gross. Manufactured in 1991.
- Tyres are excellent
- Bearings fully replaced early 2017 and have done 100 miles since . We've never submerged the wheels on launching specifically to preserve bearings.
- Winch, jockey wheel and all the rollers are 100% functional
- I've always jacked it up, and put it on blocks when not in use to preserve the torsion arms and avoid flat spots on tyres
- Fully adjustable. The trailer can be adjusted to fit your boat, simply by undoing bolts and moving the rollers / cradle / front pillar to suit your boat.
The trailer is really easy to handle, and the swing cradle at the back means once you've got the strap clipped on to the boat, gentle pressure from the winch lines it up for you and will pick it up even from dry land. You need very little water and it's very useable single crewed.
This will be a great buy for someone.
