20 FT Enclosed Trailer - Anyone hauling 4 Mountain sleds (2 x 162" & 2 x 153")

20 FOOT Enclosed Trailer - Anyone hauling 4 Mountain sleds (2 x 162" & 2 x 153")

Looking at buying a 20ft trailer plus the 4/5 foot v nose. Just wondering if anyone is running this set up and what are your opinions, is there enough room? I would be hauling 4 mountain sleds 2 162" and 2 153".

My math says tip to tip the sleds are 11ft and 11.5 for a total of 22.5 ft not leaving much room. I think if they were loaded from the front with the sleds facing the rear it should leave about 3 to 4 ft of room.

should work i can fit 6 174 in my 29ft.


you would drive in one, back 2 in, and drive the 4th in and it might have to be sideways a bit

I got 3 in my flat nose 16'. I now have the same trailer you're asking about. 20' plus v nose. You should be able to do it just fine. Even like you say if you load from the front and squeeze the rear sled tracks together in the v nose.

I have a 22'+4'V and lots of room for gear and gas with 4-163 sleds.
You will be fine, I don't even use the V for the sleds.

I have a buddy selling a 19ft Haulmark with aluminum shelves, hangers and cabinet in the V-nose. pm me for contact info if interested.

That's the ticket. I can get 3 153" and 2 162" in a 22' trailer without using the V at all. Just have to move those skinny tails around to make it fit.

Yes it is 8.5 wide, i figured it would be good. It does have wheel wells inside, will that make a difference?

No, won't make a difference. Drive over them or drive around them, no issues.

I have a 22' ( 18' + 4' V) and I have put 4 mountain sleds in easily so you will have no issues with a 20'( 20'+4'V). Load em from the front and you will have plenty of room.

We have a 20' + 4' V and we can fit 4 sleds all backed in no problem with lots of room in the v for gear. We always back in as its easier to unload the next day cause we can hand bomb the sleds out.
