If you traverse deep water I might suggest a remote bilge pump plugged into the towing argo. Kinda like a 4 prong trailer wiring harness. Maybe use argo axles so that you have some spares with you and a plug or stopper that would fit the axle holes if you pulled it?

Good idea with the pump, I always have a booster pack that it could run off.
There will be no axle holes/axles through the tub though. Check out the next post link, my trailers are very similar to the aluminum ones

Thanks, those are similar to mine, good reference. In particular, the aluminum one, but I angle the front and back so the wheels hit obstacles before the tub does.
Between me and some friends, we've broken a few of those plastic tubs though, I find that the aluminum is easier to repaire and/or customize. Nice tops, that's something to consider too

I actually almost built a set of molds of my design, and was going to get some plastic tubs made, but I never followed through with it.
