The ramp loading and offloading can be just as dangerous as being out on the water

You’re on foot, on a wet slope, beside something heavy that’s trying to move. Backs, shoulders, fingers, cold water to the waist. That’s the honest list of what goes wrong, and it happens to experienced boaties just as much as beginners.

It’s a control problem, not a skill problem. And there’s a better way to solve it.

Less time at the ramp. More time on the water.

That’s what it’s all about. 🙌

Every Balex trailer is designed and welded to order from marine grade 5083 aluminium, built around your hull, not adapted from a stock frame.

We start with your boat, your weight distribution, and how you use it, and build from there. That’s what the custom build process is for.

We’ve built a whole bunch of custom trailers with many hitting the water again this spring. Every single one designed and built around the boat it’s going on, no two the same.

If you’re in the market for a new trailer or you’ve just picked up a new boat and need the perfect setup to match, get in touch with our team. We’ll walk you through the options and put together a no obligation quote.

If your boat lives in the water between trips, you’re paying for it regularly, and it’s not cheap.

A Balex floating dock keeps your hull out of the water when you’re not using it, dramatically reduces maintenance.

Power loading works, until you understand what it’s doing to the surroundings of the boat ramp.

When you drive a boat onto a trailer under power, the prop wash scours out the bed at the bottom of the ramp and creates a some what sand bar behind the launching and retrieving area.

Over time it undermines the ramp slab, which is why more and more councils are putting up no power loading signs.

The Balex system pulls the boat on from the rear of the trailer right to the winch post. No prop wash, no hole dug behind you, no damage to the ramp.

Worth thinking about next time you’re at the ramp.

If you’ve just invested in a new boat or you’re in the market for a new trailer, we build fully custom trailers designed and welded to order right here in Whitianga.

Every build starts with your boat. Your hull, your weight distribution, how you use it. Whether you’re running a 4m personal watercraft or a 9.5m cabin cruiser, there’s a Balex trailer built for it.
