Thanks to everyone that posted here and contacted me through other channels too. For those of you that posted on Facebook...thanks, but I never check Facebook!

I reported the trailer stolen moments after I discovered it missing. The BPD were here in short order to log a report. I've also contacted my insurance company; the trailer was insured. I'm guessing that I'm going to take a beating on the 'Actual Cash Value' though. As for the parts in the box...I do not have coverage for those items, so once again, I've had a weight distribution hitch stolen! The last I heard, the BPD was going to reach out to our neighbors. There is only one road in and out of our office park, so if any of those businesses have cameras facing the street, there could be something there.

I know the trailer was there at 10PM on Saturday night, and gone by 8AM Monday Morning. Oddly enough, I am told that the big wooden block was there on Monday, but it was gone when I went looking for it on Tuesday. WTF!

Anyway...the now to start shopping. I have some leads on trailers, if anyone has info to share about a trailer for sale, please let me know!

Best,

Meant to ask you at NJ but forgot. Did you have a hitch lock in place? I've always left mine in my side yard with just a pad lock in the coupler, but now I'm thinking of adding a loop of 3/8 proof chain thru the wheels as insurance...

Hi Will:
I sent you contact and photos for a ALum Trailer that a friend of mine is selling. Please take time to respond and confirm interest before I make this "open for the public" :wink:

Will,

If you stuck without a trailer, you are welcome to use mine. It is heavy but has lots of storage, and very stable at speed too.
