Tuesday afternoon I totaled my 1997 Skeeter ez loader boat trailer when a leaf spring broke. Luckily no one was hurt and the boat was not damaged but the trailer was totaled. Boat and trailer are sitting at a tow yard and I'm trying to find a replacement ASAP. Anybody know of one available? Hope I'm okay to post this on the bass site I'm kind of desperate here.

you could also try calling EZ Loader directly. I've talked to them several times. Maybe they could help or guide you to someone who could.

Old EZ loaders are a safety issue, gotta check them thoroughly, I know of one case of one failing and dumping a guys skeeter on the highway, after that happened I looked mine over and it also had problems.

That is how I found SSmith he had some trailers for sale on this forum. My trailer was a tube trailer and I was lucky it did not come apart rolling down the road. Several places on that trailer I could poke my finger through the metal tube. I have a zx202 the 225 trailer worked just had to modify the winch. We had to use the original off the tube trailer and lower just a bit. Good luck finding a trailer and glad the trailer is all you lost. Sounds like it could have been much worse.

Thanks guys. Had an ez loader dealer right near me and I'm getting hooked up. Settled my claim with progressive boat insurance and all went smooth...just a few weeks wait while the trailer gets built. Got a priceless facial expression when I asked about a loaner.
