Seems like some here might think a tilt trl. is permanently tilted they are generally hydraulically operated and start off in the flat position then tilt to trailer so as to avoid over-width signage and permitting.

No reason not to dunk one in fresh water. See it happen often at LOTO public ramp.

Those who've been at PB2's main ramp know that the long trailers scrap going through the parking lot. I was messing with my trailer and did not know a boat trailer was coming through until extra loud scraping sound started. I glanced up and thought a big cat was falling off the trailer! Only took a spilt second to see that it was a tilt trailer, but several more seconds to get my heart started again.

yea, you are right, only said it because of the cost ? RE: the on and off loading/craning ?, cost should be about the same regardless of trl. style.
