Douglas,
Necessity is the mother of invention. I have driven to lakes only to find I can not launch.  It is time to get serious about L&R I would do track drive but it is to heavy.

 Hank,
 I've gotta hand it to you, you've got the courage to
 go where no one has gone before! Sounds like a psubber's
 dream for ramp L&R. I'm sure you'll keep us
 up-to-date with photos, won't you. ~ Douglas S.

 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
 
 Hank
