I think Bram forgot to tell you guys that you must carry a swift in an enclosed trailer. I think its part of the class rules..

Anyway. Since I have a 505 as well, I am trying to utilize the dolly/trailer system
commonly used by 505 sailors. Here are some pictures of one, which is made
by a guy in Oregon. (Stuart Sinclair)

ecosse@xxxxxxxxxxx <Mailto:ecosse@xxxxxxxxxxx> Stuart is making and selling really nice single and double
galvanized trailers. These resemble the Rapide, and a Rapide
trolley fits on one, but have all US parts are appear to be more
robust than the Rapide trailers



Although that is a dobble trailer, he also makes single trailers.


To make the Seitech dolly work with the trailer, you must stabilize it, with bars/tubes on each side, so
it becomes more triangular.


If I recall correctly, Keith Council has a custom trailer, where the Seitech fits on, not sure who made it
or if he has any pictures.

I’m looking for inputs (manufacture models, pictures, plans, etc.) on what people are using for trailers. I purchased one of Bram’s boats (USA002) and I’m starting to research options for a trailer. I’ve heard that the 49er’s had a set up where they pulled their Seitech dolly onto the trailer bed and had tool/storage boxes on the sides.

Thanks
