    Tks jetskr! It makes it so much easier then a second single and if the ramps charge is per trailer I save there too.

    I use the u bolt anti rattle bracket and it helps a lot. The bolt witch is probably 1/2" bolts through the new 2" id 18" long stock to the frame. The I can get a photo later.

    How much teeter-totter wobble movement is there with this configuration?

    What is the 3/4ÔÇØ bolt doing?

    If that trailer has a 3x3 or 4x4 main beam under that walkboard then you're golden. Just have a welding shop mount a 2x2 receiver right into the end of it.

    And the two trailer's combined total weight must also be less than the tow weight rating of the tow vehicle.

    Check whether your insurance company has anything to say about double trailer towing. Both your vehicle insurance and your watercraft insurance.

    You need the first trailer to be much heavier than the second. Not just tongue weight but overall loaded trailer weight. The idea is that during emergency highway maneuvers or sudden braking at speed the second trailer does not 'steer' the front trailer, which in turn you don't want to be pushing the back of your tow vehicle around.

    So the rearmost trailer must be lunch lighter than the front trailer, and the two trailers combined must be less total weight than the tow vehicle.

    You may have to put the big new 3 seater on the front trailer and move one of the stand ups to the second small trailer.

    The hitch on the rear of the trailer must of course be properly strong and reinforced. The middle of the rear cross beam is not meant to have forward/reverse forces applied in the center so whatever you do it probably needs to run forward to the next cross beam.

    You also don't want the added receiver to be applying twisting forces to the trailer cross frame.
