 Need to replace my Tracker 175 TXW Trailer

My trailer for my tracker 175 TXW has rusted out due to my fishing in Possum Kingdom Lake and I need to replace it with a salt water capable trailer. ( Galvanized, Aluminum or stainless) I am limited right now to the short trip to my ramp, as I don't want to discover how to deal with a boat broke down on the side of the road with a trailer with a broken main support.
PM me or leave a reply if you know anyone in the DFW area that sells a trailer like this.

How old is your current one?  So do you go to the coast to fish?

Boat and Trailer are 7 years old. Possum Kingdom is my home lake. Not as salty as the gulf but it will sure destroy a trailer.

Yeah then why waste money on another rust bucket painted trailer? Lots of good aluminum choices that cost the same as junk Chinese steel.

I have an aluminum trailer on my boat that the previous owner bought from a place somewhere around Houston. I thank he said it cost him around $6,000.00 for the 20 ft trailer. That's a chunk of money for a trailer.

Go price a painted rust bucket, it won't be any cheaper.
