This is a great Trail-Rite trailer - hydraulic surge brakes, all lights working, no rust, bearing buddies, 4 good tires on trailer and 2 good unmounted spare tires (all heavy duty), tongue extension, mast and boom cradles (wood and a little rough). Will provide fresh Texas inspection and registration. Current location - Corpus Christi, TX.

On the recent trip to Corpus Christi, we had occasion to exercise the surge brakes. Fortunately, they were extremely effective.

Asking $4000.

Walt, good luck with the sail of your trailer. I'm betting there are a few guys in Houston that will be interested.

I was wondering why you wouldn't want to keep it as insurance against the inevitable Corpus Christi hurricane?

It is a calculated risk. If our plans hold up, we only keep the C25 for a couple of years and then move up to a 30-35 ft live-aboard.

It is surprising but the central gulf coast of Texas has had a statistically significant lower rate of hurricanes over the last 50 years than the north (Houston) or south (Browsville).
