Bev,
I think a wooden boat builder named Robert Zimmer was the guy that built the Wee-Zim. Seem to remember something in Woodenboat Magazine years ago about some of his designs. Maybe our wood boat guru Doug remembers this guy... although I think he built workboats and sailboats...

Sure looks like to me those hatch side walls are a solid fold-down type, not canvas, isn't that intresting.... :thinking:

Maybe Gage, the classic small trailer photo historian, has some pictures if any of the Wee-Zims survived. Gage did you ever think about publishing a coffee table book of classic tiny trailers?

Nope, never seen that one. Maybe Grant has heard of it. He knows a lot more about teardrops than I could ever think about knowing. Me, I've just been at it for a few years. As for publishing something, na, takes to much time. I have provided some information for a couple of 'coffee table books' that are out there.

Have a good day.
