If you search this speed electric forum you will find where some guys made their own trailer and I would like to add that they did a great job. I think one guy was willing to make them for sale. Don't know about pulling it with your Revo though.
Does it have a trailer hitch?:D

I hope your not real proud of you boat. If so, I wouldn't risk pulling it with anything with NEAR the speed capability of a Revo.... Maybe a Nikko slow truck or something. Besides, something with reverse would be more realistic if you have a "luanch" where you run your boat.

I am pretty sure the Revo has reverse doesn't it? Just stay off the throttle.
Maybe you could look for one of those toy, truck/boat/trailer combos that are the right size for your boat and just use that. Maybe even turn the toy boat into a rescue boat.

non sense. 60 mph boat needs to go 60 mph on land as well
just be sure to use the tie downs and put the plug back in the boat once you drive it into the water .75% of boat sinking's are caused by the forget fullness of the owner and a little plug in the back of the boat.
OHH right rc boats ok then.

that and when someone doesn't realize where the ramp ends and loses their rear axle, causing quite a fury of screeching tires, unless the vehicle only had rear wheel drive and in that case you can guess the result.

I can't wait to get my crankshaft in for my Genesis, so I can pull the Super Hawaii with my custom trailer. Darn the waiting for parts to be shipped.

Not the best trailer ever built by far, especially compared to Don's trailers. But, It does work, and the boat fits very nicely on it.

My boy has been on me since Christmas to build a trailer for his "Hottie". He's done his own out of everything from styro-foam to wood...no pics...K!

Anyway, I'd love to scratch build one, (I'd love to fab and weld a really scale one up)but time just won't allow it now for me now with business and "home improvements" dominating the season. I am struggling to find time to run our boats lately.

I did, however, acquire a "free to me" Rustler rolling chassis recently, for which I have a stock Titan motor/esc from our original, now Mamba powered Rustler which has become more than he needs for everyday bashing. In fact, "I" can't even drive the thing w/o busting up parts on it with the power it has now. I was thinking that I could power the Rusty with the stock "-trian" and hook him up with a hitch and trailer.

I'm sure, however, with what those WB trailers prolly sell for that I'd get motivated and build him one in a dedicated afternoon. I guess that's why I asked how much and I don't even waste WB's time with an email inquiry about price becuase I'm thinking that it would be so much that I'd HAVE to set aside the time to "just do it"
