Thats kinda the way we transport our TI on long Highway trips, with the sails in the middle, then the AMA's one on each side sittiting vertical. We typically pile all the rigging, seats, pfd's, dive flags, mirage drives, and the kitchen sink into the boat, then strap the AMA's over the top of everything. We do this because all that wind from the highway tends to rip stuff to shreds (I have shredded several sets of spray skirts). With the AMA's on top we seem to get better fuel economy and eliminate the dreaded scratching of the side of the boat from the AMA's rubbing (thogh in our case it's too late, the hull sides are already trashed).
We only do this on long road trips, when local we just leave the AMA's folded.
When we store in the garage, I sometimes throw the AMA's up on top of the boat so it takes up lass room in the garage. If you leave the AKA bars in, it only takes a couple seconds to pu the AMA's back on.
When we launch and retrieve, I always put the AMA's out in the parking lot, lace the tramps, then back up to the water with the boat fully rigged, helps keep the peace at busy boat ramps.
You might be lucky, you might not need to make any mods to your trailer.
Good luck
Bob
