You mean I’m supposed to keep the trailer attached to the boat when I launch? ;)
I found a place that will direct print in Carbon Fiber or other. Fairly cheap too.
Q: the gaskets on the window frame where the side frame meets the front frame (3 screws in the front frame secure it to the...
Weekend progress. Got the outer side of the rails and most of the tops in blue. Pain doing it with aerosol (seems its always windy) so going to switch to quart & paintbrush for everything that remains.

Ran wiring down the drivers side rail of the trailer...
