1236T

The Firstload 1236T is a compact single-axle tilt trailer intended for 12-foot jon boats with approximately 36-inch bottoms, as well as similar small skiffs, dinghies and utility boats. First Load(TM) is the trailer brand of Rocket Marine Inc. (DBA Rocket International) of Fort Myers, Florida, and small trailers in this class are typically supplied through Florida marine dealers as packages with light aluminum jon boats. The tilt-frame design pivots at the rear of the tongue so the boat can be slid off and launched at shallow ramps or even unimproved banks without submerging the hubs. Trailers in this category are normally built with a corrosion-resistant galvanized steel frame, a single sprung axle with 8- to 12-inch wheels, carpeted bunks or keel rollers, a manual winch with bow stop, safety chains and submersible lighting. Light enough to be moved around the yard by hand and towable behind nearly any vehicle, it is a simple, economical hauler for a tin boat, small outboard, fuel tank and tackle. Published factory specifications for this model could not be located, so capacity, dimensions and equipment should be confirmed with the selling dealer before purchase.
