	I called Remackel on Monday. I think I spoke to the owner based on the way he talked. The price for the 4 canoe trailer is $2,775 and the price for a two canoe trailer is $2,700. All the trailers come with the box, canvas cover, spare tire and all the others things shown on their website. The only option is upgrading to LED lights for $50. The rack comes off and then you have a utility trailer with 24 inch sides. I think the only reason not to buy the Remackel trailer is the price. The box is 5 feet by 8 feet.

	Jimbo, you will probably be surprised at how much use you will get out out of a simple utility trailer, in addition to using it to haul your canoes. I would strongly reccomend the LED light option. I have replaced the standard lights on my fishing boat trailer and my utylity/4wheeler/canoe trailer with the LED lights. They simply always work and are more rugged.

Maybe Jimbo will charge his trip partners a per-mile fee for hauling their gear to and from the Park; he'll have this thing paid off in no time! That 5' x8' bed is trouble. A bed that size will only lead to over-packing!

	Wow Jimbo the size and cost of your yearly Copia indulgence is getting serious. I won't be surprised if one of these years you try to buy one of the Subarus they always have on display.

	Thanks for the feedback, guys! Early this week I did what Westwood did & called "Dennis" at Remackel & got the scoop on pricing, etc. I'm arranging to meet him on Saturday morning at Copia. Don't know for sure yet if I'll buy this year or next but I WILL buy. I'm having a trailer hitch installed on my vehicle on Tuesday, in any case. Everyone I've spoken with re: the Remackel trailer tells me the thing is indestructible... and that's what I'm looking for. I doubt I'll be hauling one home from Copia (their factory is only a few miles from my house so, when the time comes, I'll just go pick one up) but you never know. KF, the fact is I WAS in the market for one of those Subaru's but that issue got resolved last week. My "new" vehicle is much better suited for toting a trailer than for throwing canoes on top of it. That's sort of what prompted this crusade in the first place. Later, Jimbo
