I had mine built in California by ABTrailers - triple axle - 4 disk brakes - made for salt water - aluminum I beam construction &Goodyear tires Mine was around 11 - 12 K - I had the front of the boat dropped down as far as it could go for an easy launch and short tongue for easy turning.

Seastory:

Loadmaster Trailer Company in Ohio has the trailer measurements to build one for you. They need to know if it is an engine box or flush deck. They have built several over the years and have pictures of some of their work on the Albin trailer with pictures.
The contact person there is Gary Straw Co Owner at 800 258 6115. If he is away ask for his daughter Diane.
They can ship where-ever as they delivery all over the country. If you have a little time they piggy back and the savings go to the buyer.

ABT Trailers in southern CA also built an all aluminum one for me as well 8 years ago. Similar description to that of Tom U above. I've put close to 4,000 trouble free miles on it and highly recommend them.

I have a Loadmaster 3 axle that came out from under a 28 and use it now on my 27...it has every adjustment you could need to fit these weird bottoms...I got mine from Craigslist in SoCal and the boat came from Naniamo BC...and lucky me they fit!. I would make sure to have it set up for a sling launch or float in..just in case...and if you buy used check dates on tires and absolutely repack bearings and check the brake system in detail.

Let me know if a picture would be of any use
