Buy or hire the Provan if...
- you want one that is rated 800kg heavier gross
A lightweight two-horse trailer for private owners and small livery yards who want to tow with a car on a standard B96 licence rather than needing a 7.5 tonne horsebox. The all-polyester body and large front ramp aim to make loading easier than a steel-bodied trailer of similar size.

Buy or hire the Galaxy SW345PN if...
- you want one that is 730kg lighter empty
The Galaxy SW345PN suits owners of inflatables and small RIBs who want the lightest trailer that still meets EU type approval, since its 500kg gross weight lets many small cars tow it without extra licence categories. Its multi-roller bed is built for a soft or RIB hull rather than a hard-chine motorboat.
