Who we build for
Private boat owners, boat dealers and builders, and fire, police, rescue, government and military agencies. Boats we've built trailers for include Radon, Force, Grady-White, World Cat, SeaKing, Aquila, ACI, Ranger Tugs, Cutwater, Sea Ray, Jeanneau, Boston Whaler, Seaswirl, Amato, North River, Pacific Custom, Innovator, Silver Streak, Anderson Greenough and AliiKai.
What makes us different
- One trailer, one hull. Bunks, axles and brakes are set to the boat's length, beam, deadrise and loaded weight.
- Your boat never visits our shop. We design from specs and measurements, which matters for big catamarans, island owners and agency boats that must stay in service.
- Built for salt water. Aluminum and stainless construction, backed by our corrosion-free guarantee.
- Builder, service shop and parts counter in one place.
ABTrailers of San Bernardino, California is not affiliated with other businesses that use a similar name.
What goes into every ABTrailers build
- Aluminum I-beam frame sized to the load, from 7.5 in to 10 in, so the frame never rusts.
- Galvanized torsion axles with removable, replaceable trailing arms, rated to the boat's loaded weight plus a safety margin.
- Marine disc brakes with aluminum calipers and stainless steel pistons, surge or electric over hydraulic, plus Synflex non-corrosive brake lines.
- Carpeted bunks (2x6 up to 4x10) set to your hull's deadrise, on aluminum uprights and cross members.
- Stainless steel fastener package and sealed LED lighting.
- 3-year standard warranty and our corrosion-free guarantee: a custom aluminum trailer is built to last at least three times as long as a painted or galvanized steel trailer.
How a remote custom build works
- Tell us about the boat. Year, make and model, length, beam, deadrise and loaded weight (fuel, engines and gear). Our online quote builder walks you through it.
- Send a few measurements. If you have a trailer now, a handful of measurements from it (bow eye to tires, coupler size, tongue length) tell us how the boat sits. No trailer? Your boat's specs are enough to start.
- We design the trailer to the hull. We choose the weight rating, frame, axles and brakes, and set the bunks to your hull's shape, then send a written quote.
- We build it in San Bernardino. Pick it up at our shop, or we arrange delivery and freight, including crating and ocean shipping to Hawaii and Guam.
Your boat never has to come to our shop.
