It's not fun, but it is do-able. How much trouble can a 12' cartop be to
launch?

Might be easier to disconnect a trailer that small and launch like a small
sailing dinghy dolly. That is...by hand.
A block or two and 100 ft of line would make retrival real easy. Just pull
the small trailer up to the truck attach & drive away. No salt touches the
truck.
