I've owned the Remackle trailer for three years. I live in Iowa but travel to Michigan often. I also pull two Hobies with this trailer. I can't say enough about the performance and reliability. Having the ability to take it down and stand it up in my garage is the reason I am able to kayak. I went to the factory in Minnesota to see how it was built and meet the people. I'm tough to please but it's everything they say it is. Mark
