My current project is turning an old 19-foot steel boat trailer into a utility trailer although I'm entertaining the idea of making a camping/kayak trailer using a steel frame of 2 inch angle iron and 4X8 foot sheets of plywood for the top, bottom and two long sides.

Hey DW, there is a great article in this months Backwoodsman Magazine...How to Build a Travel Trailer.

Great project and something I've been thinking about; a combination mini-camper and dual kayak carrier. Something like this, but the wood work part is a bit daunting for me. I was thinking of something metal-framed using 8x4 plywood sheets on the long sides, top and bottom with an A-frame nose to store kayak accessories and a solar-powered battery and small AC unit.

This project is a little easier:

I was trying to find a teardrop camper trailer project which I'd seen before and came across this pop-up offroad trailer project. Most of it is standard stuff but note the differential coupling to allow the trailer connection to bend and twist off road:

I may beat you to this one.

That rear hatch looks like it might be difficult tho.

That's really something to be able to figure out, DW.

Kudos to those that do go kayak fishing, or just get their ass into a kayak.
They scare the bee-jeebies outta me, just looking at them. Your lower half of your body, fits sort of snug, amirite??..in one of those things??..leaving only your upper body visible.
If that sucker tips over, what keeps your ass from drowning??
