Parrymore Trailers

Hi folks

Looking at getting a triler for my RIB.

Have been looking at Parrymore Trailers.

They are nice and cheap, look OK but only see them on their web site, but I dont know anyone who has one and hence what they are like to use/last like.

Does anyone know anything about them good or bad.
Or is their other manufactures cheaper/better for the money.


Thanks Gary

Gary,

I don't know about there trailers, but they have helped me out with parts and ALOT of advice about mine.

They are always very helpful, they even stayed open late for me when I broke my wheel lock so that I could secure it that night.

I would recommend them, but as say, I don't have one of there own trailers.

Had no experience with Parrymore trailers over the years, had mainly Snipe but last year had a Bramber twin wheel to carry 2.5 tonne SeaRay and it towed a dream, boat was parked in park & ride and only put in the water with tractor, had no road work to do, the brakes never once locked on and at end of last season towed it to dealer for winterisation, it was the same as it was when i bought it. Ordered a Bramber for new rib and it tows as good as last one. What i have found out to my own cost is to not buy a trailer from a boat dealer, they put at least 20% on top of trailer manufacturer.

Yes, excellent people and always very helpful, particularly Tony! They really know their stuff and have been involved with many of the new innovations in trailer design.
I have used them to service the three trailers I have owned over the years and am sure their own trailers will be excellent.... but I have no personal experience of them.
I have had other people's trailers but only because my trailers came with the boats I bought. Certainly though, if I were a 'free trailer buying agent', they would be at the top of my list!

Hope that helps with your decision!
