I just pushed my launch cart into the shop for the last time.  Tomorrow it will be reborn.  The cart is getting a new rear axel that steers via hyd cylinder, the front is getting a 1/2 ton chev differential with a hydraulic motor to drive it.  The cart then gets two dual chamber pontoons that act as ballast tanks.  On top of one pontoon will be a 6 1/2 hp Honda motor that drives a hyd pump to power and steer the cart,  as well as a 24v alternator to charge my sub batteries.  I will be able to drive the cart with the sub on it down the boat ramp or beach or whatever into the water.  The cart will stay anchored in the water, until I am ready to put the sub on and drive back to my trailer. SWEET
