So the local public ramp on Liberty Lake is closing for the winter this week & our private ramp is so shallow these days that the prop drags in the sand when getting on or off the trailer. So I'm thinking about making a trailer dolly with about an 8' tongue on the front of it. Sort of like this concept: http://www.extend-a-hitch.com
My idea is if it's a dolly with a long tongue, anyone could use it, rather than just having it on one trailer. I'm sure backing up with this dolly will be a pain but if the truck/trailer are lined up straight on the ramp, block the trailer tires, disconnect, pull the truck forward, insert the dolly, unblock the trailer, then back the whole thing straight in......... will it work? Anyone ever tried it?
