Evolution of the boat trailer...

The wheel has turned a full circle...

Common use of the boat trailer is relatively new in the thousand's of years of boating history.

Generally speaking, the only people who owned private boats were those that lived on lakes or rivers.

The Birth of the Boat Trailer

The advances of WWII saw aluminium manufactured in commercially available sheet form and this led to an explosion in small private dinghy ownership.

The Boat Trailer was commercially born and became a necessity to allow owners to transport their boats.

The Multi Roller Trailer

The original boat trailers had Skids and boats were winched on to the trailer.

The commercial development of Fibre glass in the 1950s and 60s and improvements in injection moulding saw another stage of evolution where the Multi Roller Boat Trailer was born.

Roller Trailers Died

Roller Trailers were seen as the ultimate, but they came with a high price and every roller needs a bracket and anybody that has owned a roller trailer knows the risk of scraping their boat's hull on a roller bracket when things go wrong.

The evolution has almost turned a full circle to the point it would be near impossible to buy a Multi Roller Trailer in most countries today.

The Bunk Trailer

Today, with modern design, advancement in plastics, Spitfire offer the Bunk Trailer using HDPE bunks and HDPE cross member slides.

This High-density polyethylene - HDPE is known for its high strength-to-density ratio, is extremely slippery and offers the perfect cradle for a boat... be it fibre glass, wood or aluminium.

The bunk design allows you to drive your boat on and eliminates all risk of damage to your hull from striking roller brackets.

Perfection ... is a wonderful achievement.

HDPE bunks, unlike carpet bunks, will not cause osmosis to your hull.

Also, HDPE, unlike rigid aluminium bunks, will gently form to your hull shape eliminating hard pressure points.

DESIGNED FOR LIFE.... BUILT FOR LIFE.

Simple Axle Adjust for correct C of G Balance and ball weight.

Nuts shown, are in display models only... All trailers use 316 Stainless Nylock Nuts

316 CNC Machined Stainless Steel Winch

Stainless Hydraulic Brake Cylinders

Benefits of being a Spitfire Distributor.

Distributor Opportunity:

On July 1st 2023, the Australian Government introduced ROVER.

In simple terms, ROVER compliance, means that all companies manufacturing trailers must ensure that those trailers meet the same standards as new motor vehicles.

In short, every component or part must be certified and it's origin is traceable in case of recall.

This brings great opportunity to Spitfire Trailer Distributors, as many companies selling trailers and many trailer imports will not be able to meet these high standards and will drop from the market.

Spitfire Boat Trailers are recognised and celebrated as the highest quality boat trailer on the market and are exported to 11 countries world wide complying with each countries motor vehicle code.

Spitfire Trailers are manufactured from Grade 6061 Anodised Aluminium hardened to T6.

WE believe Spitfire to be the only boat trailer that is Anodised and Hardened.

ALL non-aluminium parts on a Spitfire trailer are 316 Stainless Steel.

Yet despite the highest quality, Spitfire Anodised, Hardened Aluminium and 316 stainless steel trailers can compete with and are often cheaper than galvanised steel trailers.

Benefits of a boat trailer business.

The boat trailer industry is unique in that 92% of customers are existing boat owners replacing a rusty or defective boat trailer.

Generally boats can last for 30 - 40 - 50 years or more, and be on their second or third trailer.

Traditionally boat trailers were made from galvanised steel, many of which fail after 10 - 12 or 15 years.

This creates an ongoing market demand for the hundreds of thousands of trailer boats sold over previous decades.

Replacing a rusty boat trailers is not an emotional purchase like buying a caravan or camper trailer, rather is is a purchase through necessity to continue to use or even sell a trailer boat.

Spitfire customers can be categorised as pretty much the same, they just want a quality lasting trailer at a fair and competitive price.
