Magic Tilt #59988 Diaz
The Magic Tilt #59988 Diaz is a Magic Tilt ET16W galvanized single axle tilt-style boat trailer designed for wide-beam boats up to 16 feet, available now at Skipper B Trailers in Westwego, Louisiana. The ET16W is the economy tilt model with wide-beam bunk spacing — a trailer that combines the easy-loading advantage of a tilt bed with the wider bunk configuration needed for boats with beams wider than standard. The tilt feature is what put "Tilt" in the Magic Tilt name — the entire bed pivots on a hinge point at the axle, allowing the rear of the trailer to dip into the water while the tongue stays level. This makes launching and loading dramatically easier because the boat slides on and off the tilted bunks by gravity instead of requiring the trailer to back deep into the water. At shallow ramps, low-tide launches, and the older public ramps across Bayou Segnette State Park, Lake Pontchartrain, and Jefferson Parish where water depth varies, the tilt feature gets the boat on and off the trailer when a non-tilt trailer would require backing dangerously deep.
Louisiana anglers who launch at ramps with limited depth — the older parish-maintained ramps, the shallow bayou launches, and the informal put-ins throughout the West Bank, Marrero, Harvey, and the marsh access points near Westwego — benefit most from the tilt design. Instead of backing the tow vehicle's rear wheels into the water to get a non-tilt trailer deep enough, the tilt bed angles the bunks into the water with the truck safely on dry concrete. The wide-beam bunk spacing on the ET16W model accommodates the wider hulls found on pontoon-style fishing boats, wider aluminum boats, and wider V-hull designs in the 16-foot class. Standard-width bunk spacing on a wide-beam boat leaves the hull sitting incorrectly on the inner edges of the bunks — the wide spacing on this model places the bunks at the correct hull contact points for proper weight distribution and hull protection. Whether you're Fishing Fanatic Frank who launches at shallow ramps and needs tilt capability for his wide-beam 16-footer, New Boater Nancy and Nick who want the easiest possible loading experience for their first boat, Weekend Warrior Will who's tired of getting his truck wet at every ramp, or any wide-beam boat owner who wants tilt convenience with galvanized protection, the ET16W delivers both.
At $1,295.00, the Magic Tilt ET16W provides the tilt advantage with wide-beam bunk spacing at an economy price. Magic Tilt has been building tilt trailers since 1953 — the tilt design is their signature innovation. The galvanized construction handles saltwater and brackish water launches without rust maintenance. Verify your boat's beam width to confirm the wide-beam configuration is the correct fit. Perfect for wide-beam boats up to 16 feet, shallow ramp launching, easy-loading, and any boater who wants tilt convenience throughout Greater New Orleans, the West Bank, and the Gulf Coast corridor.
