Smith Boat Sales in Scotland, Tx. He is a TFF member and also on Facebook. If you can get a new tire where you can pull the trailer, McGill's propeller in Lewisville can replace the spring. Smith's charge $1795 for a used Skeeter trailer. Good luck buddy, sorry for your troubles.

I bought one from Smith Boat Sales for my 2006 ZX250. Good guy to deal with.

Try to find a C channel trailer. Much better construction and will last the life of the boat.

Yep a C channel is the way to go if you can find one to fit your boat. I looked at a new one in Austin custom made for my boat ( ZX190 ) but it was $4900. Just had a new axle and springs put on mine so I'll keep it awhile longer.

Must be a monster of a pot hole you hit. If that's Wood county I'd let somebody there know. Maybe they would send a crew out to fix it before someone gets hurt. Good luck getting your trailer fixed.

FYI. This trick may help you get home sometime. I broke a spring on my boat trailer years ago about 6 miles from home. The fender was sitting down hard on the tire. After accessing the damage, I found a piece of wood about 6" long and a foot long. I jacked the frame up till the tire cleared the fender a couple of inches. I forced the wood between the axle and trailer frame, let the frame down off the jack and was able to get home. I now carry a piece of 6 X 6 post a foot long in my tool box. It has helped two other people get home or to a shop. One drove over 60 miles with the wood.
