Of the statistics on the trailer, the most important ones were for me that it was:
- > 13.5' long for the hovercraft
- > 6.5' wide for the hovercraft
- < 2200 lbs so I can tow the 500 lb hovercraft behind my Subaru Outback with a 2700 lb trailer rating.
Here are some pictures of the trailer now that it's light outside.
A front view of the trailer.
Here's a front quarter view. You can see there's both a side door and a ramp in the front diagonal.
Opening the front ramp.
A view all the way through the rear ramp out the front.
Here's a side view with both ramps open. You can see the two vents in the roof that I hope will keep me cool in the summer.
There's a nice recessed spare tire storage box under the floor.
Here's the tongue of the trailer. It's well enough balanced that I can lift the front of the trailer by hand.
Here's a rear view of the trailer. It's amazingly wide. My whole Outback could fit inside easily, short of the v-nose. And it's close to within the weight limit of the trailer.
Here's a peek underneath. It's a simple but robust construction.
Here's the hitch all locked up.
