If your handy build your own frame and buy a tarp to cover it for the winter, no shrinkwrap needed. I did this when I trailered. You will save on storage and shrinkwrap and with a used trailer will probably break even in 2 - 3 given what marinas are charging.
X2, If you buy a "nice" used trlr, (galvanized, not painted steel), or one that needs just a little tlc to be "nice", you will always get your money back if, and when you sell. They hold their value pretty good.
