[PSUBS-MAILIST] Gamma's new launch trailer

[hank pronk]

Alan,
Thanks' the trailer is great, I just pushed the sub into the storage area by myself.   My wife asks me all the time," why do we live here."   But when summer hits, this is a tough place to beat, you should see our crystal clear lakes.  I need a winter place, with a shop, and a lake with treasures in it. ;-)

Hello fellow sub nerds,
I have posed a  couple of pictures of my new launch trailer under Gamma restoration.  I have done a test load on the trailer and it works very smooth.  I have to have boards on the ramps because the ramps have big spaces between the rungs.  I have a mount on the trailer for a 8,000lb winch that I will install when it warms up.  It was -25C this morning.  You will see on one side of the trailer a hand rail, that is for guiding the sub by hand.  Remember the trailer is submerged so you can't see it to locate the sub in the right spot.  Also the hand rail can give a precise depth with a marker on the post.  I made the guides and hand rail out of wood because it is soft when impacted and flexible.  Before I needed 6 feet 2 inches of water, now I only need 4 feet 5 inches.  
Hank
