Lately I've caught myself needing to take my Foreman 500 and my small 14' duck boat to a few different places. I'm pulling them w/ my 96' 3.4 V6 Tacoma 4x4. Problem is, it's a tight fit in my truck to get the fourwheeler, not to mention it has to be backed up the ramp which is not fun.
Does anybody make a boat trailer that has a place in front of the boat for an ATV sideways? Might be a bit heavy on the tounge, but depending on where the axle was placed, maybe it could happen? I've never seen one, and I'm sure there's not much demand for one, but thought it would be neat.
It is completely doable. You will more than likely have to build it yourself but that is the most fun IMO. Like you said, you will have to consider the weight distribution if you add the length to the trailer to accomodate the quad. If you want to make it really cool you could make the axles adjustable just like semi trailers can. Or, another idea would be to build small bed over the boat to drive the quad on top. That wouldn't be that big of a deal really. If your boat trailer has side boards to guide the boat on the trailer, it shouldn't be that big of a deal to just make them heavy duty to accomodate a removable platform that goes over the boat. I am sure that there would be interest by others to have one after seeing yours.
Rats. JeffinTD, beat me to it. There had been one of those on eBay in my area.

For what would living be without a meaning and a hope? Precious little more than just some cruel cosmic joke. It's like being all dressed up and there was never even anywhere to go...
I'm pretty sure I've seen boat trailers for sale that take atv/quads on it. If you are building on yourself on a boat trailer, keep in mind how much weight that's putting on the trailers tounge and on your receiver hitch.

I know several guys with flat bottom river boats that transport them on flatbed trailers. Same trailer they use for their ATVs, tractors and other stuff. You just have to make sure that you waterproof everything and install a boat winch to help loading and unloading.
ATV and Boat Trailer in One?
