Looking foe a trailer for a 28' express, single 318 that I purchased a couple of months ago and waiting for summer pool in order to get it off the lift and bring it home. I have a friend lending me a trailer for the initial move but really don't want to be "water bound" have truck, will travel for a decent buy. Am enjoying the forum and getting valuable information.

I just bought one of these trailers for the 1978 28 express I bought. I pulled the boat home on the trailer 600 miles, pulled great at 65mph. this trailer seems a good deal, I paid 2000 for mine, mine was built for a 32 though so it is a little bigger.

Thanks for the information. Price on this one is reasonable enough wish it was a little closer to home.

They did an ok job building me a trailer. Had to make sure they put enough backbone in the trailer for the weight of the M'

Here is one ..... M included :D that should be close to you.

Actually the boat on Nashville's Craigslist is the first Marinette I looked at. At that time he didn't offer a trailer in the deal. Said it runs but the boat has been out in the weather for a long time and will need a total rebuild. My son spoke with the owner this afternoon and the guy said the first of May he will start parting out the boat. Offered 2500 but wouldn't budge
On the 3500. Said the motor was a Ford 302 and would run and hate to see the boat cut up for scrap, but at 71 years of age, more than I want to tackle. Said he would sell the trailer for 2500 when the boat was gone.

Does your son have his number? I may be interested in parts.

Hate to see a M parted out though !!!

Are you still looking for a trailer?

I am working on a deal that may produce one.

What is your budget?

I sent you a PM and email as well.
