well I am a little embarassed about my design after seeing all the computer created ones here, but gotta do with what ya got. I hand drew these and then uploaded the scans into paint. It is a weekender copy, it will be on a 5x8 trailer. But the over all wiil be a 5x10. Later on I will add a exo-cage to hold the kayaks (mine and the wifes) on top.

Am I seeing this right? Are you pointing the rear end? Do you plan a hatch or rear galley?

Might be interesting to watch. Needless to say we like different 8) :D

You will want to balance the tongue weight carefully. :thumbsup:

If you have dimensions of everything I could whip out some flat 2d drawings for you to print out to use while designing your interior. I could throw a 3" grid on the floorplan or whatever...

Let me know, I'd be happy to do it...

As far as the trailer is concerned, I agree with Miriam C about your axle location. should move it back a bit for some more tongue weight...

hey stomper

It look to me the door is too high.

Picture yourself sitting in the doorway (much like this guy) with the wall digging into the back of your legs. And another note your drawings look much better than mine, and computer drawing programs are a good source of aggravation for me.
