Subject: | Re: Long Distance Trailering |
Thanks Charlie !
I read that VAF thread and sent him an e-mail. He certainly comes highly recommended
in the Vans community.
The buyer and myself are both strongly wanting to get this done safely. I will
be here to help load and secure the Kolb when it leaves, but having a transporter
who gives a s*** about it while it's on the road is definitely worth the trouble
to find if we can afford it.
The first thing I tried to do was get one of my friends in the local ultralight
community to trailer it for us, but his old marginal vehicle cannot make the
trip. I cannot take it to him myself, and he cannot get time off work to come
get it.
I have no personal experience with these guys, but they transport a lot of Van's
Aircraft quickbuild kits,
without crating.

The Van's guy seems like a good bet. I think the main thing is that after it is
loaded the trailer is not opened until it arrives at the destination. Loading
and off loading additional items along the way can cause problems. When I
moved from Ohio to Missouri I rented a U-Haul and also removed the wings and supported
everything on 6" upholstery foam that I bought at a fabric store.
No Problems.

I've used Partain's service for two RV kits, and they were fantastic. It will
arrive in the longest trailer you've ever seen :-)
