[C320-list] Boat transport

[dprudden at comcast.net]

Barb, 

Brownell Boat Systems is hauling mine-they make the hydraulic trailers for boat transport. The opening in their trailer for a keel (it's basically a long u-shaped trailer is 28 inches, so any keel width greater than that has to be blocked higher (up 26 inches). They have 13'6" to work with, but having to lift her up 2 feet because of keel width makes it tougher.

David, 

We had ours transported last fall by Joule from Illinois to Florida. The boat 
sits low on the trailer and there was no trouble with height. I think the cab 
of the truck was higher than the boat. Also, no trouble with width. Mast was 
laid along side the boat on one side of the trailer. 

I did worry, in advance, about height; our binnacle is not the kind that rolls 
forward. Everything was fine. 

Best of luck.

I'm having my new (to me) boat transported next wednesday. Does anyone know the 
height of a 320 (wing keel) from the base of the keel to the top of 
pulpit/pushpit/binacle-whichever is highest? 


Also, how wide is the wing? 

Thanks for the help!
