Project Trailer - Pari II

Eric is a grandmaster at these things. The folks at the professional shop asked him where his own shop was...Eric works with satellite these days...


The deal was to paint the inner tubes (Eric did this), drill holes in these tubes and the outer ones, put some new carpet on the pads and place the pads at correct angles to receive Elise.

Roger saying to Nat: "Surely, this must be some sort of art project"

Nat's mom to Roger: "Are you sure you want to recline it that way? I thought that the boat would be inside the trailer?"
Dockmaster: "your trailer is...blue...very very blue."
Eric and Roger drilling holes.
Elise is suspended on the hoist while we adjust height and angles. Eric got it right the first time (we have to add a bit more carpet padding on the middle pads to make sure that Elise rests on them, but everything else is absolutely perfect!

Now, we need to paint the outer tubes, cover the few scratches that we made during the "project" - and ensure that the holes that were drilled also get paint protection. Eric managed to get the professional to give us primer and paint so we're all set!

Next will be brake job: change the pads and add wiring so the brakes can be synchronized with that of the two vehicle.

And finally, a nice touch: change the tires and take the trailer on a test drive!!

Hopefully, all of this over the next couple of weeks!
