I was just curious if there would be so much water the weight would cause a problem. More curious than anything else. I am in a perpetual state of design and am always looking for ideas...

I don't think they would ever get enough water in them for weight to be an issue. As a structure they are pretty strong.

Wish I'd realized you were at the rally, would of loved to have looked at the trailer.
I'm thinking about buying this http://seattle.craigslist.org/est/rvs/4568218072.html trailer and building it up similar to yours.
Have until tomorrow to decide on the purchase....

Still enjoying the trailer, no other changes to report- hard to believe it's been a year already since I finished it! Just got back from another great NW overland rally with it.

JDavis! $300.00? Buy that awesome trailer. The canvas looks good.
you could easily double your money if you decided to sell it.

If you need any help, let me know!
That's cool to find another one! Not bad depreciation either, I think those were like $749 new in '68, but then a gallon of gas was .20, a loaf of bread was .25, a beer was .50 as well as a pack of smokes. Still had penny candy and Saturday afternoon movies were a quarter, but they got you on the big popcorn at .75! That's a great find, nothing like that happens here!
Terrific build job BTW.

Sorry to hijack your thread Psycohosquirrel. I bought the Apache :wings:
Here's quick snapshot of it just before arriving at its new home.
I might take you up on the offer Psycohosquirrel. Would like to do a similar build to your but probably 31's or 33's.
And I just live up the road in Renton.
