They were quite the thing in '96. I suspect they didn't make it as the website is down and their press is non-existent. I was wondering if anyone ever saw one or loaded/unloaded a boat from one. Seems like it would float once you backed it in - tell me they thought of that before they built one!!!

I remember them making one on Bass Tech a few years ago for the classic. But I do know that Skeet Reese uses one now with his huge F-650.

I always wanted one of them. I priced them and it was about 5k more than I was willing to pay.

Pro Tour Trailers are alive & well. They are based in Burnett, Tx (50 miles west of Austin) & owned by Travis Warren. They have 3 models to choose from. The photo of Skeets is the upper end model. The enclosed portion of the trailer is hardly in the water except for the rear quarter panel. All the doors are sealed tight but both sides have built in bilge pumps which are powered by an on board charging system. Bulldog alarm system , rear headlights engaged only in reverse to see down dimly lit ramps in low light conditions make this trailer really special. It weighs just 200 lbs above the standard trailer. I can walk around my boat on the trailer cap. I also am charging my batteries on board as I'm driving to & from the lake. It also has an electric jack so no more cranking necessary. I can put all my rods in the side boxes , spare tire, boat cover, chain saw, extra oil, tackle boxes & not have to tote them into a motel room ect. A wrapped boat while on trailer doesn't cover up the wrapped products visual aspects. You can wrap the trailer as well for further advertising impressions for said sponsors. Anyone with any questions please email. Thanks for the questions.
