Zodiac 4.2

Hi

I recently bought a classic 4.2, I've got a 15hp 2 stroke mariner to put on it. Is this trailer suitable?
Also what would be an acceptable overhang? I intend on leaving the boat on the trailer when I'm not using it.

Thanks in advance

Looks more like a launching dolly than a trailer. Might be okay for short hops, but looks pretty unsubstantial. I've got bigger wheels on my barrow. I'd keep looking.

Anything you do find, then you really wanted carpeted bunks for supporting the boat, and ultimately the weight of the engine on the transom.

This might be overkill, but you get what you pay for. I like Indespension kit, although the drawbar looks enormous: http://www.indespension.co.uk/bunked...ster-mini.html
