Wow, great job on the trailer.  Now you have to put lots of miles on it chasing fish!

Got fenders primered and mounted today. Also did a little work on the suspension as it was really squeaky driving through all the potholes in shelter cove....

Someone brought up getting some mag wheels and I kind of like the idea... I may just slap some hubcaps on there for now maybe I will try and find some baby moons??? I don't think it's ready for rental just yet still working out the bugs.

Baby moons look cool but are a TOTAL PITA!!!!
BTDT.

Look at the baby moons in the beginning of the first video.
Completely refurbished it. Had one of the moons fall off on a bump and couldn't find it.
Bought a replacement and could not get that thing on for anything. Ended up beating the $#!T out of it trying to do so.
Got different tires and rims which you can see in the second video. MUCH better, more practical, and functioned a lot better too. Had to change a flat (blowout) on a tire with one of the baby moons on once. Another total PITA.
The exposed lugs are the way to go.

Thanks for the input but I don't plan on getting a flat, I don't even carry a spare...
