I would appreciate any responses. Depends to a degree on what you want -- are you planning on carrying a potload of boats or just two or so? If the latter. there are plenty of options. My trailer, which currently carries two boats, but is going to be modified to carry four, started as a 1972 sears catalogue utility trailer, which I bought used, twenty years later, for fifty bucks. A few bucks spent at the local welding shop added an eight-foot extention to the tongue, which made it big enough to carry sea kayaks. The kayaks ride on bunks I built out of two by fours and carpeting. The most recent addition to the trailer is a top, so gear can be secured inside while the boats are off. The whole rig works great; I've probably got $150 in it, a few bucks here, a few bucks there. -- Wes *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ ***************************************************************************Received on Thu Mar 04 1999 - 09:23:51 PST
