I have been looking at this http://www.castlecraft.com/canoe_trailer.htm for some time now.

It seems like it should be pretty easy to assemble.

Anyone have experience with it, or something similar?

Thanks.

$800.00. Ouch.

Avid that $800 price ???  Who do you kiss?

That isn't a bad price for an aluminum trailer.  Considering the thing only weighs 95 lbs., you'll never even know it is behind (which can be a bad thing   ).

I had thought about building a similar trailer out of steel until I sold my old jon and started using the Shorelandr for the Old Town.

Avid,

Just one recommendation if you get a trailer. When launching, you may want to put a flag or a colored stick or pole standing upright in the canoe or on the trailer so that you can see it out of your rear window when backing the trailer in if you can't easily see the canoe or trailer out your back window. I sometimes have a bear of a time backing my little jon boat in because of how narrow it is and how low it sits to the ground.

Good luck with your new trailer.
