There is a list – fairly extensive, but committed to memory nonetheless – of PWC-related vendors, manufacturers, builders and supply houses that make up the bulk of source material that comes across my desk. There is, of course, our WCJ sponsors, without whom we would not be able to bring you the content we do each day. There are also well-known names in the industry who are not (yet) WCJ sponsors, but whose products, services and offerings are important to our readers – and therefore, important to us.
Sometimes, I’ll see a new name – often touting look-alike products that fall short of the quality offered by the more well-known suppliers. But every once in a while, someone comes up with a new look, a new angle, or a new approach, and just the novelty is sometimes enough to grab attention. Such is the case with MGM Trailer’s new GT45 jet ski trailer.
In the release video posted at the end of February, MGM discusses the inspiration for the functionality, as well as the unique design, saying “Our main goal was to create a safe, light trailer in which we can maximize the use and management of space according to the needs of our customers. Of course, we cannot forget about the unique design of this beauty.”
Constructed entirely from marine-grade aluminum, the GT45 trailer is resistant to damage from salt water and corrosion, as well as resulting in a light-weight unit.
According to the MGM website, “Aluminum is a very versatile material when used properly. Aluminum has several valuable advantages: no corrosion, low weight, flexibility. The entire structure is fully welded, including the main frame, cross beams, inner and outer supports, fenders, and lamp brackets, forming a monolithic whole. We use top-quality marine-grade aluminum Hydro PA13AW 5083, 4mm thick for the main frame, and 3mm for side supports and fenders.”
The locking wet-storage area is another benefit of the GT45. Another highlighted feature is the roller tracks that allow the ski to be unloaded without having to back far enough into the water to completely float the ski.
MGM also offers custom graphics to match the color scheme of your ski.
On the downside, the trailer is manufactured in Poland , and carried through Tangiri Boats. They are, however, seeking additional dealers, with more information available through the website.
