Fiasco, as in the most absurdly long wait for a trailer, has finally come to an end. Trailer came in 2 weeks ago, but I was then out of town (of course) and couldn't pick it up right away.
So, the short story, is that I ordered an EZ Loader custom aluminum tandem for my 191 in late May. I went with EZ Loader because they still have all the designs and technical specs from when they made trailers for Champion, and could build one with out needing the boat. Ordered through Bob's Boat Trailers in Norfolk, VA. Initial estimates were 6-8 weeks build time, sounds good. Time goes along, no word on what's going on. Come August, they say it's finished, but they won't ship it because they won't ship just one trailer - from EZ Loader, "It would cost more than the trailer is worth to ship it". Considering what this thing cost, I seriously doubt that. Then again, no word. Then it shows up. So the bottom line, EZ Loader held the trailer hostage, basically, because they didn't want to pay to ship it. I paid $500 for shipping, BTW......total BS there.
Also come to find out, manufacture date decal on the Trailer is June 2017, so they might have had it sitting around from Jun til October.
If you order a custom from EZ Loader, be prepared to wait is all I can say. Not much I could do, I sold the old Dri-Doc months ago.....
But, on the bright side, looks like a well built trailer. I wasn't expecting brakes on all 4 wheels, and I hadn't ordered a swing tongue, which it came with. It has their "I-Tube" rails, partially enclosed to conceal wiring and brake lines, looks pretty nice. Stout cross members for the bunks, 15" wheels, VAULT hubs, nice LED lighting, welds look pretty good to me all over the trailer. Can't say I'm real happy with Bob's - trailer has no transom tie downs and he made zero effort to throw any in, seems like that would have been a nice gesture after all this. So I didn't buy any from him, still have to figure that out.
Lets hope the boat fits the trailer.....that's next.
