Where you at? I just built a 2000 pound trailer for my daughter to
move to FL. Cost me over $300.00 just to get a PA stamp of aproval
and VIN plate for it. Till all was said and done I could have bought
one for about $100 more.

I had to go to an "enhanced inspection station" that is approved for
trailers. The guy was very nice, wanted a few mods that I had no
problem doing, but he was not a certified welding inspector or a
mechanical engineer. Just an auto mechanic.

Auction might be your best bet. Buy, repair, modify then tow.

I'm looking at hauling a heavy boat (7K with the standard trailer)

A perfectly designed 5th wheel or gooseneck would be far more stable
than the standard bumper hitch. I've been looking and can't find one
to copy (my best design method)

Does anyone know of an engineering design service for this project?
I'm very willing to pay for a great design.
