It's a bit of a weird listing really - he says that he's selling a trailer and the boat comes free with it, but the description only talks about the boat, no details on the trailer at all.
Now, the photo's aren't great either, but it looks to me as though it doesn't have any brakes, which are a legal requirement for towing >750kg. So that would make it useless for towing any moderate size boat (including any Norman). Whilst it looks fairly heavily built, it appears to be a bit of a DIY job, so it might not have any plates on it at all! Also, the axles are rather well back on the frame, I'd be a bit concerned about balance/nose weight. |

doub't if that trailer would make it home without the boat
on it. and as you said about the brakes. no hand brake
so probably no brakes

Agreed. Can't believe how far back the axles are. I suspect the nose weight will be enormous. Best left where it is.

I messaged the guy, he says it has brakes but they have been disconnected, sounds and looks dodgy to me.
