The first trailer will work but you need to replace bunks with 4x4’s to compensate for the 3” width difference. No, not nearly as ghetto as that trailer it sits on now.

the search for a used single axle wide enough for the boat proved futile so I bit the bullet on a new magic tilt
It was way more expensive than I had hoped but the wider trailer jacked up the price. Obviously I’m a lot better equipped now
a plug for Boat City USA in Hammond…best price and they did the following at no charge
-hoisted boat off old trailer
-adjusted bunks, winch post, guides, axle, etc to fit
-loaded on to new trailer
I can tow now with confidence

Marketplace and ANY boat trailer for sale can work or can work with some simple mods. I find them just about weekly in my area for $200 that would be perfect. Might have to replace tires and pack the bearings, work out some lights if that is a concern in Louisiana (it ain't much of one in Georgia).

right on thanks brother, I have a message in to him. How would I go about shortening the tongue?
I wouldn't. The longer the better in my opinion...easier to back, easier to tow, just easier all around except for storage if thats an issue. If it is lop the toungue off where you want it and bolt on a hitch. Use appropriate hardware but especially nylon lock nuts (aircraft nuts I think is the normal term). Check them hardware for about a half a year or so and it'll be fine.
