May want to upsize those go-cart wheels.
When you tow it at 45mph the trailers wheels will be turning 100mph.:eek:

Make sure the end of the bunks reach the transom or it will dent and hook the hull once you install an engine and add battery weight , fuel tank etc.

I think you're getting too much free stuff.
Cut it out.!;)

Nice trailer. As mentioned, move the bow stop up a bit so the bunks are under the stern.

Nice project and you're making good progress too. What you're paying is way better than what I paid! :D

Nice! Looking forward to seeing paint on it. I've got some Rustolium Red Marine paint and anxious to see what that red looks like.

I painted some white today I will try to get a few more coats on before I paint the red...I was planning on painting it red on the bottom and white on the top but then I accidentally ordered 2 cans of white and one of red instead of the other way around...so I switched to white on the bottom red on top i hope it turns out lookind decent. The white looked good except for the back when I was playing with the knobs on the gun trying to get less orange peel and i squirted a bunch on it:mad: and it has some runs hopefully I can sand those out!
