Hey everyone, just have a few quick questions…need some info from you pros with experience.
I was given a 1972 Mako and need to buy a trailer for it, seeing as how it doesn’t come with one. I know older Makos are heavy and I’ve no idea whether or not I should be looking for a single or tandem axle trailer. I’ve done the research online, I understand that the trailer should be able to hold the boat and all the stuff in the boat (fuel, gear, extra equipment etc.) It’s always been my understanding that a tandem is better for towing heavy items. Am I right in assuming that?
I’ve never owned a boat or trailer of any kind but common sense tells me a tandem would potentially cost more to maintain…on the other hand, a heavy boat on an undersize trailer with a lower axle rating could be expensive too.
I’ve located about half a dozen decent aluminum trailers online that I’ll be looking at and have found several trailers that are priced in my budget. Just wanted to gather some info before I make a purchase. Also, a few are out of state (FL & NC)and any tips/info regarding the purchase of trailers with bills of sale only would be appreciated. 
Thanks in advance for your help. Much appreciated!
