[Rhodes22-list] Single vs Double Axle

[Bill Effros]

Rory,

I just bought a second single axle trailer for the same purpose.  Both 
the galvanized and the painted rust in salt water.  Single axle is much 
easier in the boat yard.  Unused brakes freeze up inside wheels--very 
difficult to free if let go for as little as 1 season in salt water.  4 
wheels to deal with on dual axle trailer.
