here is a pic of my trailer that I am in the process of converting. So far i have added an outboard motor mount so I can always have my lil' motor with me while im out and about. then I mounted 3 ladder rack crossmembers on top so I can put my little 12 foot boat.(when i get it up there i'll post pics.

I like the boat on the roof! Way to go combining your love of fishing and camping!

Is that a singing fish I see on your door?

Decided to rip it apart and insulate with 1 inch rigid foamboard and put 3/8 headboard over that .

You must have found out like others that a non-insulated CT can be cold or hot depending on the weather and a little insulation helps a bunch.

I'm in the process of roof insulating mine now. and going to add 12v lights then luan panel the ceiling.
I like what you've done with yours.
I need a quick fix for a full size bed.
Do you take yours up and down depending on what you're doing?

i was also thinking on your metal shelf. All those containers are going to need something to keep them on the shelves going down the road or you'll waste time having to be picking all that back up.
