Snowmobiling is a fun activity and it can be considered as a part of life in the colder areas of the globe. So it is justified to look for options which can enhance this wholesome recreational activity. Snowmobile sled trailers cater to long term investment goals. Nowadays, winter season doesn’t mean consistent snow throughout the area. There are plenty of trails, but they may not be necessarily close to our residence or may be even far away from our access. So, unless we are living in the trails or close by the trails, we would definitely need to transport our snowmobiles to get out riding. Snowmobile trailers are used for this purpose.
Open Snowmobile Sled Trailer
They do not have an enclosure and so are completely open to the outside elements. They are more economical than enclosed snowmobile trailers, but the sled will be exposed dirt, salt, rain, snow, etc. You might have to use waterproof cover to protect your sled. They are less affected by winds and hence easier to pull. They are not commonly used nowadays.
Open trailers can be made of steel or aluminum. Steel snowmobile sled trailers can be less expensive, but there is chance of iron rust and so you may need to galvanize it and this can again cost you more bucks. They can have more weight factor compared to aluminum snowmobile sled trailers.
On the other hand, aluminum sled trailers are lightweight. But they are costlier than steel counterpart. Manufacturers address the cost issue by making use of an aluminum frame and adding plywood decking. This can reduce the weight and cost of aluminum sled trailers but wood may eventually rot and so cannot be used for long term.
Enclosed Snowmobile Trailer
Enclosed sled trailers can be made of aluminum or fiberglass. They are heavier even in the aluminum version and they can be affected by wind. The fiberglass trailer use aluminum frame with fiberglass top to cover the sleds. When compared to open sled trailers, the sleds won’t be affected by outside elements like snow, rain, etc and when you reach the trails, and it will be as clean and tidy as it was in the garage.
