wow I love that off road trailer. What kind is it? Dry Weight?

Thanks!! It's the Black Series HQ12. Dry weight is 4,400 lbs. We're loving it and it fits our family perfectly.

It’s from a Norwegian reseller, but you can get it from China. Have not tested it yet

Another couple of pics.
The trailer is a highly modified off road "box" trailer. It has the same wheels and tyres as the OKA (305R70/19.5) and has a fully articulating tow hitch.
The tinny mounts on top and the trailer tilts to facilitate loading and unloading with a winch. The fibreglass box on the front houses the outboard motor.
There are racks on the outside for 8 jerry cans and underneath there is space for 2 more plus an 80L water tank. Plus all the space under the boat.
Having the boat mounted "right way up" instead of the traditional "up side down" allows the boat to remain fully operational when it can not remain in the water over night, for instance.

I picked up my latest Eriba Puck earlier this month - imported it from England - and I'm almost done rewiring it from the 240V system to a 120V system.
This one is a 1995 model - I had a 1989 Puck and a 1988 Triton before this one. I've owned seven different travel trailers and I really like the Eriba - it has been called the German Airstream
I've added an onboard water tank (5 gallon Scepter can with a 12V pump).
Its first camping trip was scheduled for Uwharrie in late April but the Covid-19 shutdown has canceled that event. It may be fall before we get to try it out.
Its 12 feet long, weighs around 900 lbs and is the same width as a Defender.















This was my 1988 Triton in the spring of 2018

What an awesome little unit!

I'd love to see how it's built in person, especially compared to the fiberglass Scamp type trailers. Some I've seenhave a far more solid floor than others, and better joint midway, too. I like this one being low, with the pop-up.

Very cool.

Eribas are built over a steel tube frame wrapped in an aluminum skin with a fiberglass roof.



I might eventually do something like this with it - drop it onto a stouter frame with bigger wheels.

My first enclosed travel trailer was this mid - 1970's Boler that I bought in 2007. They are actually a good base for updating with modern LED's and a modern fridge/freezer.
I was driven to going this route after two consecutive years of really rainy weekends at the Mid Atlantic Rover Rally where my tent floor was under two inches of water.
Getting up off of the ground is a very good thing.
