I am looking for a new trailer for my boat
The boat is a 16' runabout. I have attached a few pictures of my old 1990 Calkins trailer, and would like something similar to this.
The trailer needs to be in good condition with good tires, and bearings etc.
I Hope that someone can help me out here.

I hope the boat came through better than the trailer, it appears some one came from the opposite side of the road and hit your parked trailer.

At first glance it looks totaled, but just by looking at the pics, that trailer can be fixed. The main side beam would need to be straightened, but the tongue and some of the cross members can be replaced with new pieces of galvanized tubing. Find a good fab shop in your area and just bring them pics or pieces to get a quote. It may end up saving you some money in the long run. I'm in Bellingham, but if you want, you can pm me a list and dimensions of all the damaged parts and I can get you a ballpark quote so you have a price in mind when you shop. Just my .02

I had luckily just put my boat in the water less than 10 hours before this happened....
The pictures actually gives a wrong impression of the extend of the damage. I already contacted a place, but they told me it was totaled. My insurance also deemed it totaled. Pretty much every piece of the frame and axel got damaged/bend. The car that hit it, actually overrode the trailer (not pretty I assume, but never saw anything as it happened too early in the morning).
Let me know if anyone knows of a trailer which would replace this one!
