I have just aquired an 11 foot Dory that I intend using on the upper Waitemata Harbour for flounder netting.I have ordered a 5 hp 4 stroke outtboard and now need a trailor.On Trademe there are some kitset Chinese trailors and I wondered if anyone has had experience of these?Or is it better to spend the extra and buy quality,wont be trailing far at this stage.Any advise would be really appreciated.Thanks.
You never know what fish think.

What's the cheapest type of meat? Dear balls. They're under a buck.
