When you bought your boat, did you walk into your store (hopefully Woodard Marine) and point at the one you thought looked cool and say, “I’ll take that one?” Of course not. Or maybe you did and regretted it later. The point being, you took time, researched, and found the one that best suited you, your needs, and your situation -- right? Right. So, what we’re going to do today is educate you on:
Let’s get things going, shall we? First --
Despite what you may think, all boat trailers are not created equally. Each one is for a specific size, with particular intentions, for certain types of water. The four most common types of trailers are:
Allow us to break down each for you--
Bunk Trailers are probably the simplest of all the trailers. Deriving its name from the felt-like boards (bunks) used to protect the keel -- the bunk trailer is commonly used to tow boats no greater than 20 feet in length.
The advantage to a bunk trailer is its aforementioned simplicity. Because of this, it’s relatively affordable and has fewer moving parts equating to less lifetime maintenance.
A major con is the depth that the trailer must be submerged in order to load and unload the boat. Not only will this cause wear and tear to your trailer’s axle, brakes, hubs, and springs -- it will restrict locations you’ll be able to launch your boat.
If you’re looking for ease and the ability to launch your boat on a small ramp or low tide -- the roller trailer may be the right fit for you. A roller trailer is composed of cylindrical rollers allowing the boat to be rolled onto the trailer as the trailer enters the ramp or is backed in the water.
The pros to a roller trailer are not only the convenience of use. Because the trailer doesn’t have to go deep into the water, it will limit the lifetime wear and tear on components like your axle, brakes, hubs, and springs.
Unfortunately though, with ease comes complexity. And by complexity, we mean parts. With all of these parts, it means there is a greater chance something may go wrong. Additionally, convenience does have a cost, essentially meaning a higher price tag.
Are you thinking about a pontoon or are you like Quint from Jaws and need a bigger boat? Then we may suggest for you a float-on trailer? A float-on trailer is perfect for those who need a saltwater boat or the pontoon mentioned above. When it comes to usage, it’s very similar to a bunker trailer because of the need to submerge it quite deep into the water. And since the way to load and unload the vessel is by floating onto the trailer, hence the name -- the trailer needs to go pretty darn deep.
A great advantage to the float-on trailer is that it limits the amount of damage a boat will be subjected to when loading and unloading.
The disadvantages are cost and, like the bunker trailer, how deep the trailer needs to go, that it will require more maintenance throughout its life.
Last up are keel rollers. Keel rollers are not an actual trailer. Instead, they are added to existing trailers to reduce risk to the boat and provide more ease when loading and unloading.
As mentioned above, the pros to the keel rollers are the safety they provide the boat.
However, they are not standalone trailers and require you to purchase or already possess a standard trailer.
If your boat were to create a dating profile in search of the perfect trailer -- sure, looks would be important, but there are some essentials this trailer must-have, such as:
In this section, we will go through each of these and tell you what you need to know about these “attributes.”
What is probably the most obvious factor to consider is that the size of your boat will determine the size of your trailer. The type of boat you're buying will also influence your trailer size. Like a pontoon boat, some larger boats will require more space between the back of the vehicle and trailer. This will protect both in the case of tighter turns.
A good rule of thumb is that a single-axle trailer can accommodate 22 feet long and approximately 3,300lbs.
But again, all of this is contingent upon the type of boat you own and where you’ll be launching.
How much your boat weighs will determine how many axles your trailer will require. You also need to consider whether your trailer will only be used as a transport for your boat or will it be a bed for the boat during hibernation (winter).
If you’re thinking about keeping your boat on the trailer during the off-season, we recommend looking into something more durable such as aluminum or galvanized steel.
Lastly, and most importantly -- know both the weight of your boat and the trailer for the sake of your vehicle’s towing capacity. You don’t want to find out the hard way that your Honda Civic can’t tow a pontoon.
When it comes to finding a trailer, it ultimately comes down to what type of boat you own, where it will be used, and how it will be used. Hopefully, we’ve provided you a bit of an education about boat trailers. We suggest you use this as a guide when you’re shopping for a new or used trailer.
And as always, if you have any questions -- contact the experts at Woodard Marine today. Let us help you find the perfect boat trailer for you and your boat.
Q: Do boat trailers need plates?
A: Great question. The short answer depends on where you are. That’s why we provided this link that will show you all of the license plate requirements for all of the United States. Sorry, Canada.
Q: What size trailer do I need for my boat?
A: As mentioned above, finding the right size trailer for your boat depends on the size of your boat, your intentions for the trailer, and where you’ll be launching your boat. We suggest contacting us, and we can set up an appointment to ask you a few questions.
We know...Trust us, we know.
However, even though the boat is in storage, it doesn’t mean you can’t still sink a line in your lake of choice. (#welovebomo) (more…)
We're sad to admit this, and we're sorry to bring it up--Not everyone can leave their boat in the water until the last possible second.
We recently, wrote a blog about Three Reasons to Boat in the Fall--However, we understand everyone doesn't have that luxury. (more…)
Friday: 4:37 in the PM. It’s been one hell of a week. The boss comes down on you for the sake of coming down on you. Clients are complaining because you're the one person they can complain to without being sued. And your spouse is pissed because “we don’t do anything fun anymore”. (more…)
Everything seems to be a “hot take” these days, doesn’t it? Well, if you looked under hot take in Encyclopedia Britannica, you know what you would find? THIS SUMMER! (Teachable Moment: This is the opposite of literally, which is figurative, you’re welcome.) Anyway, you don’t have a pool because who can afford the upkeep? In some cases, it can and will affect the resale value of your home. You “like” to play golf, for fun … Know what’s not fun? Sweating to the point where your skin is covered in Gorilla Glue; everything sticks. (Again, not literally. Figuratively.) (more…)
Rainy days and strong winds might have us running for cover right now, but Summer is just around the corner!
Picture this:
Clear, Blue Skies + a Sunny, 80° Day = The Best Boat Trip Ever
That relaxing day on the water is so close we can practically smell the fresh, lake air. And is there anything better than that? So, there’s No Time to Lose! All service bookings made before April 30th will receive a special, Early Booking Discount! (more…)
Do us a favor, close your eyes. Okay, no, don’t do that, we need you to read this. How about this, use something you haven’t used in a while, your imagination. Pretend you’re a kid, and if you have kids, pretend you’re them. Pretend you’re on your brand-new boat. In front of you is the eternal blue highways splashing mist on your face. Oh, and your face is getting a Swedish massage from the wind blowing against it. Oh, and the wind, it’s stroking your hair with the whisper of a brush of air. (more…)
#HookedOnBomo is a time of celebration that highlights the importance of recreational boating and fishing. In 2017, the event will take place from August 14 through September 4.

This week of celebration is a wonderful opportunity for many to exercise their fishing skills, enjoy the summer weather, interact with nature and most importantly have fun with family and friends.

If you are bringing your kids onboard for the first time, skim through our article on boat safety tips for children.
We at Woodard Marine are especially excited for this time of year as we celebrate these activities that we are so passionate about, with both seasoned fisherman and newcomers.

At Woodard Marine, we like to play as hard as you do. We’re located in one of the greatest areas for boating in the world - sandwiched between the Great Lakes to the west and the North Atlantic to the east. We’ve seen some changes in boating since 1960, but we’ve kept up with the times, and we’ve all downloaded some amazing boating apps lately. We wanted to share the best ones for iOS with you.
This incredibly intuitive boating tool shows you wind speed, surf and wave height for your coastal zone in the United States. This boating app gets all its info from the National Weather Service, (NOAA) so you know it’s legit. Unfortunately, the Boating Weather App does not show forecasts for inland waterways or rivers, but at $1.99, it’s a real winner when you hit the coast.
The intuitive controls are nice and responsive on this boating app/game. It takes into account bait, location and technique. You'll hook a fish easy enough, but the reeling in is harder. With seven fishing locations, 12 tournaments, 9 different types of bait and tackle, and dozens of species of fish, Flick Fishing is a fun (and addictive) time waster for when all the real fishing is done for the day.
At $18.99, it’s a little up there for a boating app; but it’s so extensive it’s worth the price. Truly, this encyclopedia covers every boating situation you can think of. It pays to know what you’re talking about on the water, whether it is the physics of how boats actually function, nautical terminology, the science of sailing, boat maintenance, navigation, or boat handling in inclement weather, this guide covers almost every aspect of powerboating and sailing in over 500 entries.
This app is huge with hundreds of pages of boating info, charts, graphs, illustrations, photographs and a whack of general knowledge on safe and fun boating. Boater’s Pocket Reference is great for new boaters and old hands alike, and at only $4.99 it’s a must have for any iOS device.
The International Game Fish Association is the perfect boating tool for fishing fun. You can pit yourself against IGFA angling World Records, plan trips, identify the fish you caught easily and measure it against the world’s greatest for $8.99. We particularly like the IGFA Species ID section that covers record game species, ID descriptions, habitat information, geographic distribution, and fish anatomy.
Speed is a boating tool that uses the location data from your GPS to provide an accurate representation of how fast you're traveling.
Clear and easy graphics with an inbuilt compass and odometer/trip meter - all for 3.99 - make this app a no-brainer. With support for miles, kilometers (trip to Canada?) and knots, Speed is a fantastic road, sea or air speedometer app for a very low cost.
If you are boating - or boasting afterward - a great way to impress is to know how to tie a great Rolling Hitch or classic Reef knot. The iKnot boating app makes learning boating (and climbing) knots easy with clear animations and easy to read explanations.
When the weekend comes, and you’ve been hard at it all week, whatever you are into on the water (or land) you always need your phone with you. Why not choose one - or all - of the above apps? The team here at Woodward Marine have their favorites, what’s yours?
