Tim-
 
I am sure that your assessment is simply caused by an optical anomaly based upon the perspective of the photograph.
 
Right Pete?

I have been watching this too.  I think you are right about the storage fees.  I e-mailed them but there was no reply.
 
Better call them on the phone.  The trailer will be more expensive than the boat's initial cost.
 
Unfortunately I would have to sell my current boat to purchase this one and there are three others at my club for sale now.

Thanks.
 
Rope Clutch I understand.  Does the halyard come down the mast to a cheek block installed on the mast and then to the rope clutch?

Hi Bill-
 
I have searched on trailer and found a number of discussions.  I saw the one about one owner's dimensions and a long discussion about obtaining someone's plans for fabricating a trailer.  
 
I am aware of Triad.  They make great trailers.
 
I just thought someone might have used a J 22 or similar boat trailer for a Commander.  I thought a trailer for a one design class boat might be easier to come across.
 
But, at your suggestion, I will keep searching.
 
Thank you,

Gallery / Trailer for #5
September 26, 2007, 08:01:48 PM
I was thinking that, if I could get a Commander like #5, it would be a worthwhile project. But I would need a trailer for transport and maybe later for storage too.
 
Does anyone know of the dimensions I need to be aware of if looking for a trailer?
 
Is there a one design boat whose trailer may fit a Commander without modification. A J-22? A J-24?
 
Thanks,
