Question:

I am shopping for a quality highway safe trailer to transport a 12.5 foot FlyCraft Stealth fishing raft. Interested to know if you offer any flat floor options for your trailers so that the entire hull of the raft would be protected from any road hazards. Also, one of the vehicles I would be towing with is a Winnebago Travato Class B camper van whose hitch receiver height is only 10.....would this present a challenge for your trailer when connected to ensure a flat towing rig? Look forward to your thoughts. Thanks.

Expert Reply:

While there aren't any parts designed specifically to keep road debris from flying up under the Malone MicroSportXT Trailer # MPG460XT (or any of our watersport trailers for that matter), this is a pretty bare-bones trailer so it wouldn't be difficult to add something like that at home.

In regards to the 10" hitch height of your Winnebago Travato Class B camper van, that actually isn't a big deal. All you need is a ball mount with a 5" rise to match the 15" coupler height of this Malone trailer. For example, you can use the Curt Ball Mount # C45336 along with the 2" Hitch Ball # A-90, and then a pin and clip # C21500 or hitch lock # e98880 to tow the MicroSportXT level.
