Default 2000 Maxum 3000 Trailer

Hi all. What size trailer will be ideal for my 3000 SCR?
Can it be 2 or has to be 3 axles. I’ve been shopping but found many differences is length and weight capacities.

Thanks for the input.

Welcome aboard ! Are you looking at a used or a new trailer? A new trailer they will built you one for your boat specs which they already know. If they don't know ...walk away.

Now if you are looking at used this could be a long road. A triple axle with brakes on at least one axle, with the capacity to handle 12,000 pounds, with the bunks aligned up with the shape of the hull of the 3000 is what your looking. Did you know the 8 foot port side bunk , the inside edge is cut at a 45 degree so not to hit your water pickup for your head? Call some trailer manufacturers and ask questions. These trailers are hard to find used that will fit your 3000 exactly, so keep that in mind also.

This should get you started.

I have a Venture dual axle 12,000 lb. bunk trailer for my 2800 , I would suggest a triple axle 13,000 lb. trailer if your going to be towing any distance.

I live in New Jersey, the boat is down the shore on blocks. I will bring it home for maintenance and minor repairs. It’s aproxmitaely a 1 hour drive.
Thanks for the reply.

I bought this trailer brand new this fall for my 1999 3000SCR. It is rated for 13000lbs. I had the boat slung over the trailer to align the bunks prior to use for the first time. There aren't any intakes, fittings anywhere close to the bunks. I trailered this boat about 100km to my house with no problem. I have a 2016 GMC 2500 HD to pull this boat. Make sure your truck can handle this and take your time .

Regards
