Have you tried eBay, http://www.ebay.co.uk/?

Yes. Unfortunatly nothing to suit the 160

try your local indespension dealer in the uk - they may be able to help - unfortunately jets marivent import the boats in the uk - but there is no aftre sales for the trailers - so if your gonna get a new one get a uk tralier - you cant even get a spare wheel for the us trailers in the uk - it really sucks especially if you have dinged your rims!!!!!
cheers - where abouts in the uk are you?
im in west cornwall

I am in Coventry. Use the boat on the Solway Coast hence the need for a reliable trailer. I have gone for a modified degraff trailer. They are far cheaper and very responsive. I have gone for a 1500kg single axle with rollers and side bunks.

Thanks for the help....I will let you know how it goes.

correction - jets marivent are now importing trailer parts into the uk - i have aquired a spare wheel which means i may make my 1000mile trip to the med this year with boat on trailer.

Trailing 1,000 miles!

WOW!

The most I've done is about 45!

Best of luck on that trip!!!

unfortunately the wheel was the wrong size - so i have to wait for the replacement - damn
well its 1000 miles by ferry and about 400 by road so that shouldnt be so bad.
