Default Trailerable sailboat question

Just a consideration: Be certain the boat launches you use are steep
enough to support launching a sailboat of any kind. I say this because
most of the launches we have here in northern NH are too shallow unless
you're willing to get wet. I am definitely not trying to discourage
you, just suggesting that you check; otherwise a centerboard affair may
work much better.


You mean launching/retrieving is not an excuse to rinse off the
undercarriage of the car? We drew 12", though the trailer raised it a
bit.
