Anyone with info on folding boat trailers
Permalink  

Thankyou to all who had helpful hints about the rhino boat loader.....we have that fitted and the Captain is fitting the electric winch as I type this.......now we have the quandary of acquiring the folding boat trailer!!!!
We want one that will pack up small enough to fit on the drawbar / or in our motorbike trailer, or if it works, on top of the boat  loader on roof of the trailer. There are a couple listed on ebay, but we are too far away to see them and they do not have agents in our area.

Very simple to assemble weight of about 40 kg There are models without springs used to tow the rig to the van park ramp and then there are ones with coil or leaf springs designed to tow to distance places from you van site . If you only need one to drag to the a park ramp site as I did then I built mine so it folded down to lengths of about 900mm and two wheelbarrow wheels. Mine is hand drawn to the ramp. Could put a tow hitch on it with a little bit of further engineering.

If that's all you need email me and I'll send pics of just how simple it is

Saw a quick and easy rig to move a boat,
tinny from the top of the car to the ground and attach a coupla wheels on legs to the sides near the back of the boat,, one man dragged it across the flats at low tide on his own just south of Sarina,
Very simple on and off if already handy to water

Have also seen these in action and they are a good unit if their full sized road trailer are anything to go by
