Chris, That is pretty much my thinking too at this point. One variation, I think I might buy out there a Triton Aluminum Snowmobile trailer identical to the one I just bought here last fall. Then I can transfer the plates and registration to that one just for the trip home and sell the trailer here without much of a hit. The idea with the snowmobile trailer is that I could remove the undercarriage on the existing Hobie trailer and set the whole thing on the new snowmobile trailer and fasten it down. The snowmobile trailer is wide enough to accomodate the width of the pontoons and everything would be supported. My only concer at this point is whether the tongue on the snowmobile trailer is log enough so that when I put the old trailer with the mast support on it the mast doesn't hit the back of the minivan. If it does I'll have 3 options...
A) move the old trailer farther back on the snowmobile trailer. B) add a tongue extension onto the snowmobile trailer or C) possibly mount the exsting trailer backwards on the snowmobile trailer so the mast points up in the air in out the back??????? (this option I'm not sure about.)

Thanks for the offer of a place to stop. Might see you. Really appreciate the input though. This is the BEST forum page I've ever seen. People are so nice to each other and helpful as all getout. I'm really glad I found you all!

Greg
