New trailer fitting
I have a blank slate of a trailer, trying to figure out how to prepare it for my A25. I am, hopefully, attaching a photo of a trailer with a boat on it. Looks like it would have rollers to support the keel and side boards against the hull to keep it centered and upright. Also looks like it would be easy off and easy on. What say you all.

Re: New trailer fitting
You probably need a lot more substantial support on the sides. Side bunks are great for centering it but tge day when you cut a corner and drop one wheel from a curb you need to support a lot of weight. I have posted quite a few trailer pictures in earlier threads

Re: New trailer fitting
Here are some pictures. I think its a pretty good arrangement. Side bunks would fix my only issue that is that it is hard to center it.

Re: New trailer fitting
I’ve searched under trailer, didn’t come up with much. How can I find all your posts regarding trailer fitment. Are there clearer photos there too? Really appreciate your help.

Re: New trailer fitting
I had to fit out my trailer for my boat before I went to pick it up. Lots of good info in this thread. Thanks again for everyone's helpful input!

Re: New trailer fitting
Found some with no boat on. The trailer was set up by the PPO previous previous owner, Driftless on the trawler forum. The lower taperered board is elegant. That allows for heigh adjusttment.
