This paper aims to study ultra-light materials, which will replace the conventional materials used in the production of trailers. Conventional materials used for the production of trailer frames are: galvanized steel or steel with untreated surface and various coatings. In addition to high strength, steel is characterized by a high specific weight, which significantly increases the weight of the trailer and reduces the permissible load. Therefore it is necessary to look for other materials that have a lower specific weight, but in the same time they meet strength requirements. The designed boat trailer has 25% less weight than the lightest boat trailer available on the European market.
