You could do that in your driveway if you wanted to bad enough.

Well if those things don't cost too much it should be quick and cheap for him.

I was thinking something that simple might be found at a home/hardware store.

Try security or McElroy metal

What's in your picture is a homemade job. C channel and angle iron and a drill press. I don't know if you'll be able to buy something heavy duty enough at a hardware store.

Security is on Masonic right down from busby. McElroy is on Leo off MacArthur accross from academy. What academy has May work if it can support a boat your size

If any part of that would break, it would sent some square tubing right up through my hull.

Meh. They way it was made before probably wasn't much better.
IMO, as long as the hardware doesn't go to hell you'll probably have a new boat and trailer before any of that stuff breaks.
Have your boat guy build you some mounts if you're going to worry about it though. It shouldn't be much work.

Pretty much anybody will sell you one with a new boat on top of it.
Posted on 2/4/15 at 7:32 am to DownshiftAndFloorIt
Will you buy the boat from me?
Posted on 2/4/15 at 8:49 am to AlxTgr
Negative.
See what trailer sales place you have local and call them. I think most of them order boat trailers

Cheeks Marine, bruh. They got all that trailer stuff.
Don't go to Pineville Marine. 4-5x the price.

I should have bought a new trailer when I got the boat.
People here often recommend not skimping on a scope when setting up a rifle. Similarly .........
Not saying you skimped on your trailer, but it's usually the most important part of a fishing rig.
HOWEVER, the trouble with buying a new trailer for an old boat & motor is that it almost guarantees that you'll either (a) sling a rod through the engine block or (b) hit a stump and rip the transom out.
Good luck with whatever you decide.
