3sled in 16’ by 8 v nose

altaredneck · Sep 19, 2020

Probably been talked about before but down sizing trailer and want to be able to put 3 long tracks in a trailer. Usually only take 2 but my little one may come with us and want to make sure I can fit 3 sleds in this trailer. I know it will be tight but only be doing it once or twice a year. Will they fit. Figure I can do two rear one forward. But before I drive to Saskatchewan to buy one. I want to make sure this will work. Thanks for any input

What are the track lengths of the 3 sleds?

I have 2 165’s and a 154’

Draw the inside dimensions of the trailer you are considering on your shop or garage floor might give you an idea. You will likely get away with it if there are no fender wells inside and a v nose trailer?

I would say it's dooable..... drive the first 2 (165's) in and kick the ass ends over to the outside walls. Then back in the 154 in and should still have room for gas cans and coolers

I would think drive the 154 in first up into the V nose then back in the 165’s ?

Mines a 16 straight wall and 4 v nose by 8.5 wide. 3 fit easily and I get 4 in with backing one in.
Just put the tunnels to the center.

My buddies fit three, all 165. I thought no way but one on the right up in the nose and one backwards in the middle. I called it the Tardis lol.

I think we're both correct

Just sold a Charmac trailer. It was 16 feet in the box with a wide 5 1/2 foot v-nose. 8 feet wide inside. Easily fit 3 sleds in there. All loaded driving in from the back. 1 sled goes right up into the v-nose with skis touching the front drive-out door. 1 @ 163" / 1 @ 159" / 1 @ 155". Lots of room around the sleds for gear. With specs on the trailer your looking at, should be no problem. 8 foot v-nose is quite generous.

Tape it out on the floor and try it. I get 2 163 sleds in a 5x12. I think you could do it

Used a 16 long side wall by 8 wide for several seasons with 3 x 165, vnose was all cabinets, drove 2 in forward, Backed one in between, was a few years ago but seems was all good.

I have an enclosed 14 ft wall with a 5 foot v nose on it. Put 3 sleds in it quite a bit. Anywhere from 175 to 144 combinations. I drive one longer track from front to back, then drive shortest track from back to front with skiis up to front door and then back the last one in from the back. Still leaves room to put gear bags etc in.
