On my way to lonestar yesterday I had the entire wheel and Hub assembly come off my trailer. It's a single axle. The wheel actually past me, I called a tow truck because I was in the middle of the highway, it would have cost me ton to get towed all the way back home. He basically destroyed the rest of the trailer getting on the truck. So now I'm screwed. I had to leave my boat in the water at a freinds house and I have no way of getting everything fixed fast enough to go get it. Does anyone know or have a trailer I can borrow, rent whatever until I can get all the parts to fix this. Shouldn't take more than a few days...but I really don't like the idea of the boat just sitting out there. Any help would be appreciated.

What kind of boat is it? How long of a trailer do you need?

It's a blazer 190proV, 19' 6" , I'm guessing it is a 20ft trailer

Jeff at Plano should have a trailer in their boat yard.
Best of luck!

Have to say a big thank you to Claysefus for helping me out...thats a good guy right there..strange that the kindness of strangers was more than i can say for the people who i called friends who just drove by when i was stuck in the middle of the road (I can't tell you how many times i have stopped to help people out). this has changed my perspective...lesson learned. actually a couple of lessons learned. 1.carry a spare hub kit...2.never let a tow truck drag your trailer on to the truck(causes more damage than what you had to begin with) 3. find better friends..and through this nightmare of an ordeal i found 3 more people i can call friends..

Oh man, I hate to hear about that. I can promise you I would have stopped had I driven by you. Holler at me if you need any help. I'm not the most mechanically inclined person, but I do know how to show up with cold beer to help out and learn something.
