Just when you thought that everything had been invented!

 

 Hit the road...And the water!

                                                            

  

 

 

 

The initial concept of the FLOAT TRAILER was to allow ATV and boating enthusiasts to transport their Boat and ATV in the same package.  In the province of Ontario, with thousands of kilometers of roads and over 400,000 lakes, imagine what you can do with a trailer that can be used as a boat and vice versa!  The company representatives witnessed an overwhelming, positive response to the Float Trailer through several trade shows in the spring of 2007. The only model available at that time, the FT 1454  proved itself in the Canadian North at remote fishing lodges, private cottages, hunt camps and local fire departments. But, the true versatility of this vessel became clear when you could actually see people envisioning themselves in the driver's seat and rolling down their road or skimming across their lake... 

People are amazed how easily the Float Trailer 1454 is launched in and out of the water by either automobile or ATV. Well proportioned for stable, safe towing on the highway and yet handles surprisingly boat-like in the water.

Featuring high ground clearance and fully independent suspension, it travels over roads that many other boat and trailer combinations cannot. This floating trailer is a durable, high quality alternative to both thin walled, riveted aluminum boats, and steel/wood constructed utility trailers.

• Beam – 6’3” (1.9 m)
• Door opening – 54” (1.4 m)
• Approx. Weight – 950 lbs. (431 kg)

This original size model is ideal for transporting a single ATV and a whole lot more. Built initially with the hunter/outdoorsman in mind it's easy to see how it may replace the dog as man's best friend...  Put to the test in the wild waters of Ontario's north, owners could not believe that a 25 HP engine put this craft on top of the water with ease carrying 2 or 3 passengers. With incredible capacity and very shallow draft for it's size, the FT 1454 is a great value.

Two new models for 2008!

 Horse Power Rating – 40 HP

If the FT 1454 is the "mule" of the family, then the FT 1600 is the "work horse". With the same amazing stability as the shorter version the FT 1600 delivers more payload with a bit more punch! With the added length of this model we were able to offer the option of jet power - perfect for those that run shallow and/or rocky rivers and lakes.

You've met the "mule" (FT 1454) and the "work horse" (FT 1600), now let's introduce you to the "clydesdale" of the family.

Despite the shear size of this model, it has the ability to "plane out" with as little as a 35 HP outboard motor!
