Getting a trailer built?

Does anyone know anyone that can build me a trailer frame in Cork?
Preferably able to have it galvanised also.
I'm also looking on done deal etc. but there are not a lot of quality ones...
Its for an 18ft orkney type fishing boat.

How ye. Tried to buy a trailor on Done deal and from north meself. Worked out too expensive. don't know anyone in cork but a mate of mine in Kildare is building me a new trailer at minute. I bought hubs and wheels in scrap yard and rollers and winch, hitch etc. from marine direct and steel from heitons. Total cost won't b any more than 650 euro by time I'm finished including me buying primer and hammerite paint. Might b worth while buyin stuff yourself and gettin a welder to put it together for ye. Everything can be built around your boat this way too. Hope this helps

Makes perfect sense!
I just want a frame, axle, tow hitch and wheels.
I'll add the winch and rollers myself. I have a local fabricator pricing it for me, but he says it shouldnt be that much really. I'll put up the details when / if I get it done as your options are really only spend a fortune on a new one or take a chance on an old one!

There's got to be a start-up business idea in there somewhere for some lad who's handy with a welder, got a big enough shed in the backyard and has a few contacts in the boating community.

there is a man from co antrim making them he is on gumtree belfast

I know a great guy in Cork if your man lets you down. He fixed my trailer while i was down there last summer, really god guy and it didnt cost me a whole lot. Which is always a bonus

Try these guys in Dungarvan, they are recommended.
