Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Launch Retrieval Transport



Did anyone see the red sub with stainless MBT's in Michigan ? He had a nice trailer with an electric/hydraulic tilt, and a cable winch. His sub weighed 6500 lbs.
He towed it with a 3/4 ton pickup. There are small steel rollers on the bottom rails so he could winch the sub on and off the trailer. These were about 3 inches in diameter. Probably OK on a smooth garage floor, bot not so good on a rough concrete boat ramp. With 8 inch hard rubber wheels, you should be able to roll the sub off the trailer and down the boat ramp, into the water......Frank D.
