I apparently have the original trailer that you get when you
order it with the Potter 19. It seems a little short, and I'm
somewhat worried about it hogging on me. Unfortunately, I may
not be able to afford a replacement trailer yet. (I've not yet
checked the prices, I'm afraid to! ;-)

However, I am thinking about modifying my existing trailer. It
is the one with the long carpet covered rails and the two short
rails on either side of the keel at the end of the trailer. One
keel roller up forward and that's it. What I'm thinking of doing
is replacing all these flat rails with rollers instead. West
Marine, for example, has some roller rails the same length as
the current carpet covered ones. I'd like to replace the two
small (<=1') at the end of the trailer with a double roller setup
as well (two rollers on each side of the keel, in line to replace
the small rails there).

Comments? Recommendations? (I'm not asking for opinions, I know
I'll get those! ;-)
