There she is, The HMS Beangle, our made-to-order Bean Stalker. Although we will continue to keep a small patch in Colorful Colorado, we intend to spend as much time as possible in this lovely little teardrop trailer. The ever talented Miss Carmen will be personalizing it for us once we get home, after she has a chance to see how much terrain she has to work with.
The trailer’s name comes from a wish to incorporate the manufacturer’s name into a historical name that brings to mind travel, adventure, and discovery. Our dear friend, Eileen Cook, writer and wordsmith extraordinaire, quipped, “Beangle?” as a nod toward the voyages of the HMS Beagle, of which we’d just been discussing. We all knew immediately that it was perfect.
The HMS Beangle comes to us with batteries fully charged, so we only needed to fill the propane tanks for our first week of camping.
It’s been such a pleasure working with the sales and production teams at Bean Trailer. They have a great line-up of trailers, from basic to extreme, should anyone be looking for a similarly amazing small trailer. No, they aren’t cheap and they certainly aren’t for everyone (“What?! No toilet, no shower?!”), but we’ve seen enough already to say with Bean, you get far more than you paid for.
