John, Attached are a few photos of my kitfox trailer. I couldn't attach them in a reply to PM, so here they are. Others may be interested anyhow.

It is an old two place snowmobile trailer. I replaced the tongue with one 16 feet long. There is a little hand crank boat winch on the front of the tongue to crank the Kitfox up onto the deck. I set the tail on the deck before folding the wings.

If I was starting from scratch I think I would design a trailer so that the kitfox would sit lower to the ground like you see some of the modified boat trailers. I just used this trailer because I already had it on hand.

Here is a link to the Trailers/towing section on the Sportflight web site if
you haven't found that yet.

Let me know if you need more details. I would be happy to snap more photos if you need some.
