[QUOTE="Lungdeflator, post: 236274, member: 5163"] Do a quick search on here, I've commented and posted some pics of my setup. Its an 8x12' v front, I use a 4 place snowmobile trailer to haul around as I don't live on a lake. Bigger than what you are looking at, but the same idea. Honestly for a long term solution, for me the jury is still out. It does kind of suck to tow around because it sits up high on that snowmobile trailer, not to bad if its not windy though. Loading and unloading is actually fairly quick and easy. The trick is to try to keep them lightweight, otherwise it doesn't have the same allure. Stuff like TV's, batteries, etc... add up quick weight wise. My bigger house loaded down for a weekend of fishing, a tracked ATV or SXS is the way to go. I think a utility widetrack snowmobile would pull it fine too. I pulled it over 8 miles one way across Clearwater and was doing about 12 MPH with my tracked foreman. That was 8-15" about of snow with hard packed drifts mixed in. No way a wheeled house could've done that. Honestly with a 6x8' house, they are really light, I wouldn't worry about snow plowing on lakes in ND. The wind blows the snow and it doesn't stay deep powder for long if at all. A tracked vehicle or snowmobile and that light of house you will stay on top. [/QUOTE]
