Enclosed trailer setup

[Blake K]

Just got myself a used 6 x 12 enclosed trailer with the wedge nose. Can't wait to begin using it. Bought it mainly to store my layout boats in. However not certain of how to set it up on the inside. I will have (2) final attack boats(48" x 8ft) and plan to stack them somehow on top of each other. I also hope to be able to store some duck and goose floaters, trolling motor, etc in it. Can some please post some pix of how you have your setup?? Looking for ideas. Thanks in advance for any and all input.

I don't have any pic's right now, but the way we set up our Canada trailer is as follows:

We made "wine glass" type racks along the ceiling & slide our stuffers in upside down.

Other than some tiedown cleats on the walls & floor, it seems to change from year to year, so we kept ours pretty plain.

Does your trailer have E-track on the sides?

Mike - it does not. It is a very basic model.

Anyone - Would it be possible to attach some sort of hinge system from the side in which a table like contraption folds out?? Seems like it would be convenient if there were times I need to use the trailer for something NDR and didn't have to store/remove a platform in which the 2nd boat would set upon.

My idea for the two boats,would be to install a pair of "U" shaped cleats on eack side to accept a 2x on edge.Cut 2x6s to cross snug,cut a rounded section(shallow) out of the 2x6s to conform to the hull shape,pad the resting area with rubber or cork tape.Set how high you want it.In and out would be easy,for two and possible with one person.Another way would be to set them on their beam ends on each side(set on recycled hard foam seat cussions) (tied to the walls),with an aisle down the middle.
