I have been in conversation with a company that makes aluminum boat lifts.
They have a vertical lift and we have been talking about how to incorporate bunks on the bottom frame.
I believe this style would be ideal as the lift is more sturdy than your typical cantilever style.
Cost may be the pohibitive factor.
I could adapt his lift to any boat trailer frame with the correct weight capacity.
Or, I could build a trailer to suit.
To anyone considering this, what is your price range/budget.
I realize the less expensive the better, but we do have to consider safety.
What would be the inside width clearance necessary for your boats?
Do you want to consider a drag boat on the bottom/top?
I'm considering the t on top of the drag, I have come to the conclusion that a side mounted cantilever is simplest to use boat of choice, but I haven't measured the lower trailer yet so see how far the t has to overlap to stay in the 102" or close! I have a licensed trailer fabricator near that can add weld the brackets needed to keep things legit!It may require offsetting the t a little on its trailer to stay within road legal limits!
