Anyone done a fold away tongue on a Nordic Heat trailer?
i talked to a guy who had one done at nordic but they no longer offer that service.
The biggest kit i could find online made by fulton was 3x5. The heat trailer is 4x6... Anybody know of a kit?
thanks!

I saw one on a 34' boat, it was basically a plate welded on the tongue, and the hitch that was hinged on one side and had two bolts on the other side so there was no slop or play in the two pieces. I think it was a trailer made by Zeimen.

That's my boat pictured in the first post. It was done in 2006 and I haven't had any problems with it. I have noticed no change in the way it trailers and it still looks like it was put on yesterday. I would have no concerns recommending this set up for anyone that needs a fold a way tongue. Good luck!

that would definitly change my thinking for sure, i've just never seen one on a boat larger than 21', but it obviously has been done and apparently works good w no issues so i'd be looking also if i was in your shoes, not sure if extreme can help you out or not with at least getting you the right parts for the job
