This is the last one that I am going to make. Thought I would show some new design additions.

The base trailer is a SnowBear brand.  I usually find them on Craigslist for around four to five hundred each.

I like this model because:

1) The tongue can extend an additional two feet.

2) The axle con be adjusted forward and back.

3) The front and Back panels can be positioned to make a 10 foot flat bed.

With the tongue full extended, the axle adjusted back and the panels put in the flatbed position, you can haul an AI with the weight balanced forward.


I then add the kayak rack system. 

1) The height at the lowest position will clear a PA. The racks can be adjusted up another 8 inches.
2) The upper racks can be adjusted up and down. The can also be turned parallel with the trailer for less wind resistance or removed altogether.
3) The front racks have slide out easy loaders on both sides, top and bottom.
4) Finally, the whole tree can be removed leaving just the utility trailer.

Just wanted to share some things that have worked for me.

They are awesome trailers.  How can this be your last, though?  You still haven't modified mine.   ;)  Actually, I love the modifications.  I may have to pick your brain about some ideas lancod and I discussed coming back from Depoe Bay on Sunday.  They seemed like good ideas that were feasible, but we had drunk some warm beer that was in the back of his truck before brainstorming. Therefore, we may need a third opinion to prevent anyone from being injured.

Good thing this is "your" last one. Now you can help me get one going.  ;D

Looking great Steve!
My wife thinks fishing is merely guys wandering around like idiots swinging sticks in the air. Many of my trips prove how smart she really is.

I am sorry to say that it is not.  I thought that I might keep this last one for myself.

Alas, No! That is one of the reasons why this is my last one. My welder moved and I can't seem to find a good one to replace him. I did not realize how good he was.

Hey Wobbler, that's a sweet trailer. Who is your fabricator, I'd like to see if they would build me one. I'm in PDX also.
