Many boat movers we have here on the east coast have the types of trailer that don’t need a cradle or some “constructed “ rig. They have trailers with hydraulic “arms” that can be brought up to the boat

Looking at Richard's photos from moving his 34cb to the shop got me thinking..... Firefly is a C&C 29 Mk1 with extended keel which is lake locked 3 hrs away. We have been considering moving her closer to home, back to the Columbia River. As previously mentioned she is due for hull paint (or wrap) as well as bottom inspection, paint etc. So the choices become hire a boat mover, or obtain a suitable trailer (rental or buy). I have plenty of trailer-tow experience just not with a 29ft fixed keel sailboat. The question to the group is: Any insights, experience or thoughts on 29 trailering? All comments, stories and discussion welcome! Karl and Doris Kuzis Firefly, C&C 29 Mk1 karl.ku...@gmail.com<mailto:karl.ku...@gmail.com> Cell (360) 606-2099
