Most wrong-trailer stories start with a guessed length or a dry weight that left out the motor and fuel. This page walks you through the numbers we ask for, adds them up, and builds a message you send to us yourself. It does not confirm fit — Maya does that with you before any money moves.
Measure the hull from the bow eye to the transom. Do not include the outboard motor, swim platform or bow pulpit. This is the length a trailer is set to.
Beam
Widest point of the hull.
Bottom width
For flat-bottom / jon boats: width of the flat bottom where it would sit on the bunks.
Hull type
Flat (jon), modified-V, deep-V, catamaran, pontoon, PWC, inflatable / RIB. Bunk placement depends on it.
Photos
Side profile, bottom of the hull, transom and bow eye. Photos catch problems numbers miss.
Bring the same numbers to any trailer seller — they are standard. A 14ft label alone does not mean a 14ft boat fits.
2. Add up ready-to-tow weight
Use the boat's published dry weight plus everything that rides with it. Enter what you know; leave the rest at 0 and tell us it is unknown.
Gasoline is figured at about 6.1 lb/gal and fresh water at about 8.3 lb/gal.
Enter your weights above.
Why we can't say "fits" here: our 14ft galvanized trailer is rated 1,323 lb GVWR/GAWR. That is the maximum total — trailer + boat + motor + fuel + gear. It is not the boat weight the trailer can carry, and this page does not subtract the trailer's own weight. We confirm that with you from the unit paperwork.
3. Build your quote request
Fill in what you can. Your message is shown below and opens in your own email or text app — nothing is sent from this page, and nothing is stored. Do not include card numbers, SSN or other private data.
Fit review. Maya reads your numbers and photos back to you. If the 14ft path is wrong for your boat, we tell you before you pay.
Written quote. Price and any accessories in writing. There is no card checkout on this website; payment options are confirmed with Maya.
Pickup by appointment in the Katy, TX 77494 area (serving the Houston metro). There is no walk-in showroom — we set a time with you. Availability is limited for galvanized; stainless launches December 2026 · no preorders.
At pickup: check lights with your vehicle, coupler latch on the ball, safety chains crossed, winch strap, tire pressure per the tire sidewall and unit label, and the boat sitting on the bunks — not the crossmembers.
Texas registration. Texas requires registration of non-farm trailers used on public roads, done at your county tax assessor-collector office (TxDMV — not Texas Parks & Wildlife). Per TxDMV, titling is optional at 4,000 lb gross weight or less. Ask Maya which ownership documents come with your unit, and confirm requirements with your county office. TxDMV trailers page
Warranty & support. Ask for written terms for your unit; see warranty & support. Parts and accessories: parts.
Bring to pickup
Driver's license and the tow vehicle you'll actually use, with a hitch ball that matches the trailer coupler.
A working light connector on the vehicle (or an adapter) — we test lights together before you leave.
Your written quote / message thread with Maya.
Ownership paperwork: ask Maya in advance which documents come with your unit so you know what to take to the county tax office. We don't list documents here that haven't been confirmed for your unit.

Freshwater, occasional salt with rinsing, budget
Frequent Gulf / bay launches where you want more corrosion resistance
Care
Both need a fresh-water rinse and drying after salt; neither is “rust-free forever.” Hardware, bearings and lights still need checks.
Rinse the frame, hubs, springs, lights and bunks with fresh water after every salt launch.
Let it dry — a short drive helps; don't park it wet under a cover.
Watch where bunks, brackets and U-bolts touch the frame; salt sits there longest.
Check wheel bearings and lug nuts on a schedule, and before long trips.
Galvanized vs 304 stainless frame: see the stainless comparison. Stainless resists corrosion better but still needs rinsing; we do not promise a rust-free life for any trailer.
