Sure would be nice never having to tarp, no dust, no dirt, no rock chips, everything very secure. Kinda surprised they don't make them as a V-nose. Could set it up with lockers for gear, rods, etc. along the roof and upper sides where it doesn't get wet. Needs a good power vent system to air out humidity, for those that fish later in the year, maybe a heater like the sled trailers to dry everything out. Also dubs as your garage so don't have to worry about your boat not fitting in your garage, lol. As far as pulling hard, any of the current crop of diesels wouldn't even know it's back there. I tow a 29' enclose sled trailer with full tools, gear, and 5 mountain sleds out west and we've towed with all of the big 3 diesels multiple times and zip through MT faster than we probably should. The trucks don't care in the slightest. I could see this being really great for some pro fisherman.With that said, they would have to be built very well to last. Aluminum is awesome as it doesn't rust but it still corodes, is more brittle than steel and so it has it's own issues with rough roads and cracked welds. My steel enclosed trailer is starting to show it's wear and that's considering it gets washed after every single trip often times the day we get back, is stored indoors 90% of the year, and has probably only made 20-30 trips (15k-20k miles). I don't see one in my future, but can certainly see the benefit.</blockquote>
