This may be a little north for you (Cincinnati area) but I had to replace my trailer a few years ago. It was a challenge just to find someone willing want to spend any time helping you to get what you really needed at a reasonable price. Some dealers just out right said they weren't interested in messing with it. One guy told me I couldn't afford to buy what he was selling (I'm not sure how he knew) since I had an older boat. Most of the marinas around only wanted to sell "package boats".
I did find one guy who was willing to help and actually had a decent inventory of trailers in stock. I have an alum boat but most of what I saw in stock was for bass boats but he took the time and we looked through catalogs until we found an almost exact match. The company was Allcraft Marine 513-533-8800, ask for Charlie.
The other companies that would quote trailers only, their prices were north of $3000. I bought mine for under $2000. The ones he had in stock were even more reasonable.
I've sent a few other guys his way and he helped them too.
Good luck in your search.
I have a Tennesse Trailer under my Crappie Master Boat. Great Sturdy Trailers, They are in Sody Daisy Tennessee. Worth a call.

Shows four dealers in KY, most not far from Louisville, for EZ Loader trailers. I wouldn't expect a trailer to be more than about 700 bucks unless you get a real fancy one or dual axles or something.
Good luck with it.

C&O Marine in Tenn. has trailers for sale. I don't know the brand but they show them on their web site. Craigslist is a place to try!
