Free Boats, when you’re lucky, come with Free Trailers too- but sometimes free trailers are more trouble and more dangerous than they’re worth.
This example we recently posted for a 22′ Macgregor has a trailer included, and as a former owner, I know these boats can be really fun for short money. The trailer though? I once towed a MacGregor home, a drive of over an hour including some time on the highway, when the trailer tongue SNAPPED APART as we backed it into the driveway. Like, snapped in two. As in, a major major disaster if this had happened on the highway. We were lucky that time, but the lesson here is always check that trailer carefully before you drive away! Happy sailing!
