Do not paint, or powder coat this type of trailer after all this effort. Take the axel off and get it hot dipped galvanized. If, at any point this gets into salt or brackish water it WILL rot from the inside out. I learned the hard way on my 93. After maybe 150 hrs in brackish water the trailer disintigrated, dispite my best efforts at rinsing it 30 minutes after each use. Even if all it sees is fresh water the tube just behind the axel will go, eventually.

I understand now. I interpreted the initial post as recommending to get the axle galvanized, when what he meant to say was get the trailer galvanized after removing the axle.

One bunk down...3 to go.
I replaced the wood and have installed the carriage bolts per the MTAJPA method in the thread below: http://mastercraft.com/teamtalk/show...t=48880&page=2

Carpet added...
I truly hate carpeting bunks. There is a case of beer or beverages if choice available if anyone wants to do the other 3 for me!
