Default Re: redneck hauler

So, out to the lake for the weekly jetski ride and fish fry dinner. What do I see? A redneck boat hauler. Well, clearly high dollar. But, figured you all might like some photos.

The skis lift with the booms. Two booms in case one breaks. The whole upper rack is held in place with receiver hitches so it can be removed pretty easily. Guy said he prefers the set up as the typical skis in front of boat requires everything to be on the trailer all the time for proper weight distribution.

Really? Tubes cause more drag than panels? Makes sense, just would have never guessed. Anybody have any additional experience with aero drag on buggies? Might be an interesting new thread.
