Snipe twin axle roller trailer

Hi,

My Rib (8.6 metre Cobra, dry weight 1.8 tonnes) came with a trailer that I don't use. The place where I store it are not carrying on so I need to either move it or sell it. It has rarely seen water and is in good nick, no rust, however will need a full brakes service probably shoes and cables.

It was supplied in 2005 and believe it has a 2600 kg weight limit but the plate was not stamped and the current sellers of Snipe trailers do not have records that go back that far. I'm not the original owner so I don't have the details.

I will upload a picture later. (Just tried and failed)

What sort of price should I be asking for it?

Thanks Oscar, can't get into my inbox at moment on phone..... Will clear when I can.

Don't hang around for me, if Stu / you can agree a deal go for it ..... He's got loads if money so don't cut him any slack

Stu, I'm after something smaller than the current military trailer for the a28 Stu, mainly so it'll fit in a different shed (going to also keep the military one as it's a better road trailer) think this might be a bit on the light side in retrospect..... Keep your ear to the ground for me!?!

You'd have a lot of trouble getting a tug near there it's about 10 miles inland! PM sent.

I dunno Oscar if you hit the wharf at full chat you can get em on land! it looks just like the tile factory area that used to be in Poole near the power station. but it was 20 years ago

check your PM

If you had used that for the 28 then I would have reported you to the NSPCT (National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Trailers.

You would want a 300 min for that hull and engines. You VAT registered, presumably. if you are ring me

It's just for use as a 'yard trailer' tbh, so long as it physically fitted it would work. I need something lower than the military one which I can't get in one of the sheds..... Will call you in the week

Trailer sold. Fingers still tingling from the negotiation. Not a man to cross in business!
