Customizing a 16ft. Jon Boat?

[Chubminnow]

Since this is a general discussion about how to modify a jonboat I would like to add another question to the topic...I have a 19' Lowe Jonboat (big ol' wide and deep outfit) with a 70 horse Evinrude...anyway, the trailer this boat sits on is homemade and I'm hoping to purchase a new trailer for it this winter. My question(s) are:

a. What is the difference (besides the money) between a good trailer verses not so good of a trailer?

b. The trailer I have now has bunks instead of rollers, do most large jonboat trailers have bunks or rollers?

c. Tandem or single axle? The boat is pretty good size with a 70 horse Evinrude plus the inside of been totally decked out with carpet, rod storage etc...I'm not sure how much it weighs but what kind of trailers do you guys usually see a larger jonboat sitting on, tandem or single axle?

c. Can anyone recommend a dealer to call on? I live in the Louisville area and have checked out some prices from two different dealers nearby (one in Louisville and one in Indiana), it's looking like it's going to cost around 1000.00 to 1100.00 bucks. One of the dealers I talked with I had met when I was at the Jim Strader show last winter so I guess he's reputable...

Anyone help/advice anyone can share would be much appreciated, thanks!

check around marinas and lake bait shops for trailers for sale you may run up on a deal I found a single axel trailer at a yard sale and got it for 20 bucks had to do the wiring again it cost about 30 bucks lights and all. Look at the tires of the trailer your buying is the wear the same are the axels straight, if you buy used be carefull
