    Putting you boat and trailer in the bed of your pickup definitely qualifies as insane. :shock: I would be interested to see how he loads and unloads it.

      The double decker trailer looks like it has two cranes with electric hoists on either side that swing out. This would allow the operator to hoist the PWC and swing it clear of the trailer and lower to the water on the sides.

        I think you're right on that setup. I've seem some more sophisticated setups with hydraulics. Launch the lower boat, then lower the upper platform to launch the upper gear. Kinda like a car hauler. BKH

          about 8 years ago I saw a trailer like the first 1 at Hammer's Marine. It was a cool setup, the upper rack would lower down once you launched the boat so you could then launch the PWC's. Great for those long wknds, or if you have only one vehicle to tow with. I just would worry about the height and weight, would totally change how you tow on fwys and such, gotta start looking at the "height limit" signs along the way. Yellow_Flash_Colorz:
