Loan of a boat trailer ?

#1 Post by scuby »

Hi,

I keep a sea Hog Seajeep on a trailer all year ( not moored ), and need to do some work on the trailer. Does anyone have a free trailer for a few days ? Hoping someone has a boat on the water and not using theirs ? Or even somwhere i could leave the boat resting on some bales of straw/tires while i work on the trailer ?

based near Aghada, East Cork

cheers
