Bunks offer the best support and a simple, long-lasting setup. Rollers allow launching at shallow ramps and avoid submerging the trailer.

The frame of the trailer is usually aluminum or galvanized steel. Aluminum is lighter and offer great corrosion resistance, which means the trailer will last much longer, especially in salt water.

Torsion axles are smoother and less prone to corrosion.

Leaf springs are easy to replace and allow loads to be distributed evenly across all axles.
