    What is RC Boat Trailer question for meeting main road wide?

    What is RC Boat Trailer question for meeting main road wide?

    Example:
    Tamiya 1/14 RC King Truck Hauler & Trailer Length: 23.62 inches (600mm) & Width: 7.20 inches (183mm). And Tamiya 1/14 RC Flatbed Semi-Trailer Length: 27.99 inches (711mm) & Width: 7.60 inches (193mm)

    I purchase a 32" fibreglass catamaran hull from eBay and not ready to post due post delay.

    32" fibreglass catamaran hull
    Length: 32" (815mm)
    Width: 9.25" (235mm)

    I was looking several boat trailers custom at YouTube, RC forum pages.

    I notice Big Offshore Powerboat put angle level on the Truck with low trailer at street road is narrow traffic transport.

    Did you have traffic book from police officer say RC Boat trailer custom illegal without permit in Narrow Street?

    Notice Offshore powerboat trailer with Truck is pink coat owner by Stefan is no longer driver now. I don't Know happened to Stefan stopping Offshore Powerboat driver?

    Can you writing this comment message relay and ideal boat trailer size and custom.

    Thats a very cool Project to have a scale semi truck and trailer for a scale boat, I've seen trailers for model boats but always pulled by bashing vehicles like buggys or monster/stadium trucks, never a scale vehicle to the correct scale nevermind a semi.

    If I understand your question correctly you want to know the correct size for the trailer, if so it should be about the same width as the truck and the same length as your boat, the flatbed trailer you mentioned looks like it will fit the bill, it's a little (14cm) too short but as you see in your picture some of the length of the trailer is an extension framework just to hang the numberplate and lights from, it looks like in this case they modified and converted a commercial flatbed trailer to suit and I would follow suit unless you have good fabrication skills and facilities.

    That looks like an Australian or American truck to me and I dont know the road laws over there but I assume they are similar in this respect, here in England there is a maximum legal width (3m) that you can tow without route and travel time restrictions and an expensive police escort.
    As large multihull vessels are wider than this they are tilted at an angle high enough that the width comes down to the maximum limit which allows much more freedom of travel and a huge cost reduction.

      Not entirely sure I understand what you want but in North America trailer width is 8 feet 6 inches with lengths up to 53 feet.
      Here is a link to a manufacturer of deck trailers with dimensions.
      Apache Inc. specializes in heavy rigging, oversized loads freight forwarding & trucking transport services across North America, Ayr Ontario.

      Hope this helps, I'd kinda like to do the same but in 1/10 scale and a 1950's truck pulling it for my 1/10 scale 1957 Miss Wahoo hydroplane. I wouldn't bother with rc myself I just want it to display the model at home!
      Looks fun

      If my boats upside down then who owns the one I thought I was driving the last two laps?
