Actually, it's probably a good question, even though he is related to Darr. :lolhit:

The trailer that is used for Predator is built by Lugo. It is completely covered on the bottom of the trailer, so nothing gets through. Sometimes on long trips, the bottom side will be covered, but it peels off easy as soon as we get there. The scoops are always plugged.

interesting...is there a maximum angle that the engines can see before damage ensues (oil, etc)? always wondered that...id be also interested in seeing how the boat attaches to the trailer that allows the range of motion as well as boat launching capabilities...havent seen too many tilting trailers

Also, does the paint on your Skater/MTI get damaged or chipped by road debris or loose gravel being tilted on its side traveling so many miles?.......:drink:
Ok,No,No,No

Wet sump engines need to be drained first. Most tilt boats have dry sump engines. Oil is for the most part stored in the tank. Gas tank vents need to be on the high side also not not loose gas out the vents.

Wow!!! That is really cool how those trailers work. Somebody was really creative and had an imagination to come up with the first trailer like that.
