Restored Vintage 1950's Michigan Boat Trailer


I'm selling my vintage Michigan Boat Trailer by the F.A. Long Company of Benton Harbor, MI. This beautiful and rare trailer has a unique feature that lets you lower the hull down to the water by releasing hydraulic pressure. The trailer was manufactured during a time when trailering boats was in its infancy. The Interstate Highway system made it easier to tow your boat to remote lakes and rivers. This trailer design allowed you to launch a boat in shallow waters without a “modern” launch typical of public access points.

This trailer is 100% original and correct for the era. I matched the paint colors to an early Sterling boat trailer catalog. The frame was sand-blasted and primered before the final paint was applied. Check out the awesome yellow fenders! These pivot around the spindles when the trailer frame is lowered to the unload position. Everyone with a classic boat wants a Tee Nee but you are guaranteed to turn heads with this trailer under your boat.

Model No. DB16

Serial No. 20065

 Please study the pictures closely and ask any questions prior to bidding. The photos show the best detail when enlarged.

Thanks for looking & enjoy the listing!

The AEV Brute, a Jeep Wrangler stretched and turned into a four-door pickup by American Expedition Vehicles, already has so much going for it that we could hardly imagine how it could be improved upon. AEV was already famous for offering a wide variety of off-roading equipment before the debut of the well-received Brute double-cab pickup, a bespoke truck in the spirit of the Jeep Gladiator and the Land Rover Defender 130. Filson The Filson version features the 6.4-liter V8 instead of the V6.
