This post is about the trailer build. I looked at various designs around and decided I wanted one that would give the craft and skirts protection from the road. I elected for a tube frame which has turned out nice and light but still strong .It was simple enough to build with the tilt mechanism which has proved easy to get the craft on and off. Settting up the springs on angle iron made getting the balance right easy. The electric winch has a dual purpose in that it lifts the front up to slide the craft off and then it will winch it back on at the days end. I used poly mud guards as the were cheap and still strong enough if supported well. Vicroads website has all the info on lighting and safety chains etc and registration was a breeze.
