Trailer for Futura

[thestig1973]

Im picking up a Futura mk2 fast roller tomorrow and will want a trailer very soon.

Am i correct thinking i can use a bunk trailer so the inflatable speed tubes can sit either side of the bunks?

im expecting to find a trailer for around £350ish, can anyone advise if that sounds about right?

something like this? Around the £600 mark, depending on spec. Cheaper things out there, all horses for courses! If you see something, stick a link up, happily give you an unbiased opinion.

I saw that roller bunk earlier, but I read on ribnet some guys were using bunks, I just presumed a bunk trailer would be a fair bit cheaper

We used a bunk trailer for our Futura Mk 2 - with the bunks positioned between the speed tubes and the sponsons and also a bunk at the rear to support the transom - a Snipe trailer from memory (like the lower picture here Snipe Trailers and Cradles). No rollers in sight !

Looks ideal, just rang a few numbers to get a price but not been quoted yet
