[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 486363, member: 412"] Next level to that, part of the floor with the rollers or with bunks will slide out into the water so you can load in current. Think roll-back tow truck bed function, but for a boat trailer. Could probably make the slide-out floor modular so you could have a "double-decker" sled trailer in the winter when the boat is in storage. Swap out "modules" like a roll-off dumpster-truck swaps dumpsters. And yes, longer V-nose w/Genset, heater/AC, along w/some HVAC in the trailer to manage moisture. Might as well have the trailer wired so the Genset can charge the boat batteries and power some good lights in/out side the trailer, maybe a bait fridge and commercial ice-maker while you're at it. Tool storage and a Big air compressor to run tools for the off-road folks. The biggest challenge with all of that isn't coming up with features people would LOVE to have in a trailer. The challenge isn't even the engineering to make all of the hydraulics, winches etc work. The biggest challenge is, who's your market to be able to sell more than 1 series? 1. Retirees with a lot of $$$? 2. Pro fishermen/snowmobile/off-road vehicle racers? 3. Powersports dealers with a giant ego? You'll get a sub-set of all 3 of the above to bite early, but, how do you continue to sell product after the initial "ego buyers" have bought? [/QUOTE]
