Title: 2003 A/S Pro trailer
Post by: deanharvey on July 23, 2014, 11:02:59 PM

Looking to buy a 2003 American Skier Pro that does not have a trailer with it. Any ideas on where I can pick up a suitable trailer? I would buy the boat in a heartbeat if it had a trailer.

If you have the means to beg, or borrow, something for a few months I can provide a new 2015 model American Skier TBX trailer late Fall, early winter.

Ron,

I have a 2000 TBX and trailer so I could get the new baby home with the trailer I already own until I get one or build one myself. What would the approximate cost be? I was hoping to get one at a reasonable price to keep the whole package price at a smart level.

I love my 2000 TBX but I keep it at our lake house in north Texas and want a boat to keep here at our daily house here in Houston. I want to keep the road miles off of the boats. My 2000 TBX is pristine and I want to keep it that way! The 2003 TBX Pro I looked at is nice but it appears the trailer deal is kind of a pain. People want an arm and a  leg for used trailers and some of them are just junk!

My email is:

Let me know more. Thanks for your help.

Dean

All new replacement trailers are built to order based on your budget and requests are.  I prefer not to duplicate the original trailers various shortcomings but improve from the original. Example, we used 14" wheels & tires, I prefer the capacity of the 15".  Trailer costs are directly linked to raw material usage. Here are a few examples
Low end                     High End
14" plain wheels/tires     15" custom alum. wheels
