Trailer Valet Dolly/Jack Anyone seen of of these in action?

I looked at these too last summer b/c of how tight my garage is and the 90 degree turn I have to make to get the boat in. I had to take the guide poles off the trailer to fit mine in the garage and have about 2 inches to spare on each side. I talked to a lot of different manufacturers of these and finally ended up getting an old used 4 wheeler instead. I mounted (welded) a 2" receiver hitch to the front frame of the 4 wheeler. Now I back the boat down the driveway with the truck, make the 90 degree turn and unhook it and drive the 4 wheeler up and push it straight into the garage. I can also use the 4 wheeler to put the jetski in a few doors down too. So all in all it made for a more versatile tool to have a 4 wheeler instead. Also use it a lot around the yard and to take out stress in the winter months when I can't be on the lake

This seems like a perfect fit for us - we don't have a vehicle big enough to tow our boat. It seems probably that we could use this instead to just move the boat in and outside the garage for us to do some light work on it? Plus our current tongue wheel mechanism appears to be shot. (Won't lower or raise)

Now we're talking! As Viking said, keep us updated on the build, where you get parts, etc.

I think the proper fix for all of you and your boats to garage and driveway issues is a lawn tractor. My gramps had an old John deer and he striped the cuttng deck off it mounted a 2 inch ball to the back and moved his boat all over the place. Much easier then using the truck.

Plus you can find used tractors all day for 300 to 500 5 to 10 HP and then when summer is over you can sup it up and have lawn tractor racing yeee haw!!

Dang, that looks pretty sweet. would definitely help jockeying the boat into the garage. During the summer months we keep it stored outside (covered) so we can leave tower up and just load and go on a whim. But those times of getting it into the garage are a bear!
