    Likely a Chariot, Prestige or Heritage trailer (all were owned by the original Mariah company) came with the boat. Chariot went out of business in 1998 & was replaced by Prestige which was very similar. I dont believe any of those 3 companies still exist. As for the brake type i believe they all used surge brakes (Dico-Titan brand).

    Thanks for the tip I was pretty sure it should be a Prestige.
