Why a Spitfire GLIDE-ON ... SLIDE-OFF Boat trailer
Most boat trailers sold in Australia today are a hangover design from the 1970s.
The advantages of a Spitfire GLIDE-ON trailer are:
* No keel roller brackets to damage your hull.
* Easier to drive on.
* Lower centre of gravity when under tow.
* Lower maintenance.
* Lower cost.
* A Lighter Trailer.
The advantages of a GLIDE-ON SPITFIRE Trailer include;
Spitfire's High Density, Super Slippery, Polyethylene - HDPE UV Polymer glides has many advantages over other bunk material.
* UV Stabalised
* Does not hold water like carpet bunks
* Does not hold sand like carpet bunks.
* Does not cause osmosis like carpet does
* Super, super slippery
* Flexes to the shape of the hull
* Lower maintenance
* No metal b
Bunks can be changed to Spitfire side rollers.
However on a correctly set up trailer, each roller is only carrying an average of 36 - 54 kg.
Also keep in mind that the footprint of 36 - 54 kg weight on a roller is supported on only a few square centimetres compared to a set of bunks which can offer 1,000 sq cm of support per bunk.
So consideration needs too be made as to weight, road conditions i
If you should operate in an area of high tide run... or high wind and need assistance to centre your boat when driving on, Spitfire offer cost effective, 'EASY LOADER V-GUIDES'' which can be attached to the last or even several cross members to guide you straight every time.
Again, nothing to scratch your hull.
Any configuration. is available to suit your vessel and your local conditions
