Building the Trailer at Stirling Marine Fabricators
|
All aluminium construction
|
Ric, my brother-in-law and master welder and boat builder without whom the trailer would not have happened!
|
|
3mm Aluminium flat plate on floor and roof with 25x25mm SHS ribs reinforcing walls, floor and roof.
|
2.5mm checkerplate on the sides and doors
|
the Aluminium box unbolts and lifts off from my rusty old 8x5 trailer.
|
The front tapered section of the box stretches out over the draw bars of the trailer for the extra length needed inside.
|
New pivoting jockey-wheel makes life sooo much easier
|
The roof racks can carry many boards and double as lifting points
|
The flat roof is strong enough to stand or sit on.

Plenty of room for the four JP NewSchool 1m wide 180 litre boards for Windsurfing Camp
|
Plus my board and a lot of other gear
|
The first pair of gas struts weren't strong enough to hold up the rear door - hence the mast propping up the door.
