look at this hunk of junk i bought

#1 Post by hotairgypsy » Tue Apr 06, 2010 9:40 pm

I mainly bought it for the trailer....trailer is in great shape. has brake on both axles and all the lights work...as for the boat will be working on finding a new home for it. tell me what is up with the front of this trailer....i am used to seeing 2 vertical plans the toon butts up against but you can see the way this one is designed...why is it this way

Looks like a trailstar to me and every Tracker boat I have seen comes on one.

Yep...my trailer is designed exactly the same way but it's galvanized, not painted. Painted trailers in saltwater become junk very quickly :rofl :rofl

You could always make that thing an artificial reef. :nana


Looks like the trailer is in 100x better condition.

or youo could make it a floatable dock if the logs are good. maybe some one wants a project boat. dump the boat for a cheap price. maybe pay for half of what you bout the trailer for. stip the inards out and list it a a floatable dock that needs some tlc

holy shit bro, and I'm talking about the thing on the trailer, here's and idea, when you go to pick it up, take a couple big ass spikes...drive them in the ground behind the boat, take that rope from the front and tie it to one toon on the back and to one of the spikes. Then take that tie down off and tie it to the other toon and spike, hitch up the trailer....and step on the gas as hard as you can and dont stop til you hear a thump, stop get out and do this.... :nana :gay :alright :biggrin2

Now walk back to the trailer and take another real good look at it, because that toon looking thing was making it look like it was a diamond. Now the toon really looks like a turd in a punch bowl out in that field.

No really I'm just joking with all that......the toon looks good, I'd paint "Titanic" on the side and take it out for another maiden voyage.

I'd bet money BMR could still get some of those gals pictures on it!!! :thumbsup

Just scrolled to the right, Jimrs, you're a damn genius, how'd you figure out it was a Trailstar? :bowdown
