MAGIC TILT Other models

The register lists 4 versions here with unladen weights from 310 to 600 kg and gross vehicle weights from 1,400 to 2,700 kg, all trailers in class O2. One version measures 9,050 mm in length, widths range from 2,360 to 2,500 mm.

The combination of low unladen weight, high gross vehicle weight and a length of over 9 m is typical of boat trailers, where much of the permitted weight is only reached once the boat is loaded. Such trailers are common at marinas and boat ramps and are usually fitted with a tilt mechanism for loading, as the brand name Magic Tilt already suggests.

When buying a used boat trailer of this type, corrosion on the frame and axle from contact with water, the condition of the rollers or bunks, and the function of the tilt mechanism and winch matter most. Wheel bearings and the brake system should be checked particularly closely for moisture damage due to frequent launching. Spare parts for rollers, winches and lighting are available through the general boat trailer accessory trade.
