    Looking for a tandem trailer for a Fish

    I'm interested in buying a particular Fish Nautique, but the trailer the boat sits on is garbage... Trying to find a decent used trailer. Anyone selling?

    With the Fish being a 23's v hull you should have a lot of non factory options available to you. I would check some fishing/offshore forums and see what you find. Most roller trailers for boats that size should be adjustable enough to fit your needs. Might need to be a little careful with prop clearance since a lot of them may be originally intended for use with outboards boats instead of inboards but you should be able to find something that will work. I have to imagine the odds of finding a factory 30+ year old trailer for sale in decent shape are going to be pretty slim especially since most of the Fish were likely used in salt.

      Yeah, finding a galvy tandem axle original CC trailer for a fish is like finding a unicorn. Any reputable trailer company should be able to put a good trailer under your Fish. Just depends on how much you want to spend.

        Definitely NOT looking to find an original CC trailer, just something that will work well with the boat. That said, I just have no idea what would really fit given that it's an inboard.

          I'm looking for something in between. Don't need an original trailer, but don't really want to have a new trailer made, as that would be quite pricey. Just looking to find a used trailer that will work with that boat.
