    Stratos trailer question

    I’m buying a 2005 294 pro xl. It’s on an older tandem axel trailer that I’m not crazy about. I found an 05 285 xl trailer that’s a good deal in good shape. Would these trailers be compatible? Weight appears to be okay. Thanks!

    On my 2003 185(18'6"), the trailer bunks come just shy of the transom. Thats with the bow pulled tight up to the roller. So with a 19'6" boat I would have to assume you would have about 12" hanging out past the bunks. That's too much in my opinion.

    bunks need to stick out a little not the hull overhanging the bunks maybe with some different bunks and bunks repositioned possibly??

    Is the 05 trailer for the 285 XL still for sale that you found. I have that year boat and I’m looking for a trailer.
