I will update as my plan progresses and I gather materials and supplies.
They're very light! Upside-down, with the prow into the 'wind', the air would favor it! If the height of the TV and Trailer roofs matched, even better.
Long ago, expedition rigs combined boats with trailers to create better sectional density, less porosity, and they did take care to match structure to structure.
Good thinking!
Plus you'd have a boat, and option to incorporate into travel plans.
