I have a picture of the trailer I modified to fit the j. where would you like it sent John Originally posted by Scott: I'm working on getting a trailer built for my boat. It looks like the builder is going with 3 axles. Anyone have pictures of their boats on the trailer? With or without 3 axles? I'd like to see how everything looks and possibly help with the placement of the axles in relation to the boat.
Thanks

FWIW - Before buying my J/30 locally in Seattle, I was looking at some boats on the east coast. The ecomomics of commercial transport made actually buying a trailer for a 1-way haul (and either keep or sell) more viable. Fortunately, I found the right boat in town and didn't need to buy a trailer.
However, some insight from my research:
- the Triad folks are great. Had I needed a new one, I felt very comfortable with having them build what I needed. Very helpful and good people from my initial discussions. I've looked closely at some of their trailers in the yard and they've very nice.
- You might consider buying a used trailer as well. J/29 trailers are a logical alternative and I have been *told* (can't confirm) that J/105 trailers can be easily adapted for the J/30. So, maybe find an owner that doesn't travel with their boat anymore?
Cheers, - Jeff
