While there was a surge of demand for loose trailers when owners were doing DIY boat projects in the spring, early summer that may have subsided with the end of the boating season in the North east and Mid-Atlantic states.

I have had good experiences with Load Rite brand.

As for model, for the classic Montauk 17 I would recommend:

Galvanized - 17245090VT

Shop several dealers hard because prices vary WIDELY. Think new car shopping. Do research, get detailed quotes, etc.

Order in January for spring delivery.
Most dealers do not have inventory. Will need to wait for orders.
