Default Crawler boat launch

Waiting on the weather to clear up I made a trailer for my boat out of junk I had lying around. Not much crawling but my Clod crawler gets to pull the trailer.

That's fantastic!! Too cool. Nicely done getting back on there. One of my favorite pastimes since we live in a coastal town is watching the boat owners getting their boats on/off the public launch early in the season. I'd be scared to death driving a trailer into the water like that. And you can sure pick out the novices...not that I could do any better but the pressure with all those people watching...and waiting. You can really see the anxiety in some of them.

Practicces makes perfect putting the boat in the water and I can do real well. Always have been able to back up a trailer though. Love the video. How much for the trailer? Intrested.

Thanks guys. Glad you enjoyed it. The wheels are some airplane landing gear. I have some stock TLT tires I am going to try and adapt to fit.

Nice. Would be cooler if the tow rig was somewhat scale, but cool none the less.
