This is a question for Hobie Matt I have trailered large and wide the last few years with no problems This has cut set up and take down time in half I do need one oversize pin for sure and maybe two oversize pins What about drilling a oversize hole in the frame and placing a regular SS bolt washer and nut instead of the taper pin which is used for alignment when pulling hulls in and out I am also thinking about putting epoxy in the frame and bonding everything together I would leave the pins in place for tramp ties and added strength Any thoughts I measured my Hydra Sport 24 side to side it is 2" form Hobie 21SE side to side and I pull it thousands of miles pulling large and wide is the only way to go |

Either or both ideas would work. |
