There are only two types of trailer boat owner in this world - those who have had wheel bearing failure and the ones still to suffer from one! Seriously, it's a problem for all trailer boaters and often results in you rig being stranded on the side ofthe road many kilometres from help. For over 20 years I'd towed boats all over the country and never been stranded with a failed bearing. However, I recently suffered a trailer bearing failure close to home.

However, it took only ten kilometres of the short journey before it started making a noise as I was getting close to home.
