Author	Topic:   New Trailer for 16SL
matesvi	posted 04-10-2010 11:34 AM ET (US)         I am replacing the E-Z-Loader trailer for my 16SL. I am considering an aluminum bunk trailer but have heard that galvanized might be a better option. [Give] advice [on the choice of galvanized steel or aluminum as the material for the frame of a trailer for a Boston Whaler 16SL boat,] and where to find a trailer here in Milwaukee.
