[C320-list] trailer and hauling

[argates2nd at comcast.net]

David, 
I am in Plymouth, MA harbor. Who do you use for hauling? 
Does the same firm pull the boat and drop the mast? 
Do you have a wing keel? 
Is there any slope up or down to the pad you use at home? I think there is some slope limitation for big rigs? 
Are you saying the full job is $700 or is that just the mileage for the 35 miles?

I have my boat hauled home every fall. It takes an 18 wh rig road weight is about 56000. But the good news is its still cheaper than keeping it at the marina and it includes taking the mast down and up. 
About 7 bills each way and the distance to home is about 35mi. I'm in SE mass.

Don't know where you are, but take the boat some place else to have it hauled. 
That's what I do. I sail her 35 miles away from the marina where I dock. 

It is closer to home and cheaper for winter storage.

I'm considering having a yard trailer made. Not interested in hauling the boat down the road but would like to be able to pull the boat in the fall to do bottom work, waxing etc. Our marina is not equipped to pull sailboats without dropping the mast and this is not only expensive but it is a real PITA. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
