Well don project and well done video. I decided to use HF trailer for a boat and looked at all the videos on you tube. By far this is the best. Thanks for sharing.

That looks great color matched to the boat.

Nice job on the tongue. I'm doing the same thing to the HF trailer I just bought. Nice work!

Very nice improvements. Its obvious you thought it out before building it. Im doing the same also with the square tubing.

Great. :) on ours, I have installed rolls like the one you have at the winch. However, it's also a bigger boat (5 meters) and it weighs 315 Kg.

Great idea and good job putting it together! I’ll be doing one but welding instead.

I believe in Washington state it has to be bolted to be legal at least in Snohomish County

I'm looking to do this same type mod but with crossbars that are already installed with 2 Hobie kayaks. I just want to extend the tongue length. Have you ever looked at using a Malone 2" x 3" x 90" replacement tongue with their retractable tongue kit ?

Nice build

Very nice video👍 i’m buying one tomorrow I might have to reach out to you if I have questions? seems like you did a really good job great video

What size steel bar did you use?

If used without bunks, you think the gutters could bend?

Nice trailer! Do you mind telling me the length of that square tubing? I have that trailer and am thinking about doing this to haul a 14' flat bottom.

Thanks! I sold the trailer with the boat a while ago. If I were you, I'll install the pipe on the trailer, load the boat and then cut the front part out. Make sure it;s long enough to turn safely. Then install the hitch coupler.

Where did you order that bimini top from? Everything turned out good man.

Nice work on the trailer! What kind of spacers did you use to fit the tube? Also, you mentioned you had to cut something at the tongue (top of the A shape) to make the tube fit. Can you explain how you did that?

@BoatMotors

The spacer is about 2mm each side. You have to watch the video one more time to see what did I cut. It is hard to explain.

what are the link for all the product used? need more info about the square tube that was used!!!!

Those trailers have been around for ~20 years. Many use them for building tear drop trailers and traveling around the country. They are also sold and very popular in Europe. Do some research prior to publicly displaying your ignorance.

@@ridemfast7625 Yes Sir. Those little wheel bearings are begging to fail. I've always had a rule that the trailer tire should be as big or bigger than what it is hailing. Like my Polaris RZR or similar. It's nice having extra "bed" for boards or whatever-ya-find. A tandem axle rides like butter and you forget it's back there. FWIW in Illinois basic trailer plates jumped to $135/year from $20 -$30 like it has been seemingly forever. And the money will be abused by abusive corrupt leaders and union jobs, padded pensions.
