I am not Bill either but I agree with him.

A folding beam boat will never be as light and stiff as the same boat with a fixed beam. Also (from experience) folding beam boats are never as easy to operate as they show in the brochure

A good tilt trailer with a hydraulic tilt adds maybe 5 mins to the assembly time.

If I were going to spend time, money, and boat weight on making a wide easier to trailer flat I would work on making it easer to assemble.

* A good index system for the main beam/hull. Some kind of tab that aligns the beam and hull perfectly every time.

* 1/4 turn fasteners for the beam bolts.

* quicker way to lace and tighten the tramp. (for example running the lacing line through micro blocks and using the mainsheet to tighten them.

You get the idea.
