I am looking at a 5m fiberglass Caribbean Safari, 150hp Merc on the back. The boat isnt to bad but the trailer is on its last legs.

Seeking advice on the correct trailer to look for it. Does it require brakes? I am assuming so as I recon it is well over 750kg.

If any one has a similar set up or good knowledge of trailers etc advice would be appreciated.

Hi Rapson

Ive had a few over the yrs and Mayfair Marine who make Tinka and Redco are good. have a Tinka at present for the Vag. Also MacKay are very good too. http://www.mackaytrailers.com/

If you look at the mackay website from time to time they have stock trailers for sale at various locations for lower prices.

Re outboard mechanics, I have white stuff so can comment on that but not the black ones!
