The new owner is a marine surveyor and comes from a family that owns a boat yard. He'll be able to do this project.

Arthur attended the SNE annual meeting last year and brought some pictures from his Sheila C. Bermuda trip. I raced the 2008 Newport-Bermuda with the Fat City and Smiles folks on Carl's Swan 391 "Fat City Too". A couple of guys who stayed behind for the delivery back met Arthur when he showed up in Bermuda the day after most of us flew home. Pretty amazing to single hand a J/30 Newport - Bermuda and back again!

I am looking for a trailer but don't know anything about them. I looked at the boat and trailer that Bob found on e-bay and then spoke with a trailer manufacturer (Loadmasters) to compare what new ones go for. I got a price of $6k for a new one. Is that a good price?

Regardless, the guy I talked to said that the boat cannot hang over the back of the trailer or one will get ticketed in most states. I mention that because the trailer on e-bay looks pretty short. Anybody have any input here?

When I was looking to transport my boat from NY to MA, I looked into purchasing a trailer. I was quoted a similar price.

The outfit I talked to was Triad Trailer and they sent me the attached pdf which breaks down the costs and has several options.

I will say that the trailers that Triad makes look MUCH more substantial than the trailer in the e-bay posting.

Not sure the rules on eBay, but the original 'listing was ended ended by the seller because the item is no longer available' on the boat noted above. Then relisted with a reserve.
