    Default Trailering a Kitfox

    Anyone have any recommendations about trailering the Kitfox?

    I am getting ready to trailer my SS for the first time and am looking for advice.

    Preferences over trailing forwards or backwords?

    If it has to be trailered backwards, it seems as though a lot of wind would come in through the turtle deck. How do you manage the wind that wind? Is this even a concern?

    Any suggestions?

    I trailered mine over some 180 km's: I was kind of afraid for it, but it turend out OK. I had a good trailer, tied her down on the main gear. The tailwheel just tied-down to prevent her from jumping off the ramp.
    Eventless. Wind in the turtledeck was no issue, because I chose a day with no wind. But I agree it could be a problem. Reason I planned it this way
