Trailer Sailer Towing

admin — Sun, 01 Aug 2010 09:12:37 +0000

I have recently purchased a small trailer sailer, boat length 17′ 0″ The previous owner had the mast unstepped and laid on top of the boat with approximately equal lengths overhanging front and back. The mast is about 25′ 0″. Is there any reason I can’t trail the boat with the mast lowered but still stepped in the tabernacle? Obviously the mast would overhang the rear of the boat by about 15′ 0″ with this arrangement. I can find nothing in the towing regulations against this.

Many thanks Mike Marshall

I have a vega 18 trailer sailer which is fibreglass and i have a problem with the swing keel, it seems to slap from side to side in the keel box. I have been unable to get any drawings or information regarding the layout of the keel and I would be very grateful for any information you can give.

Thanks in hope! Rob Michalski

Corribee Owners Assosciasion

It is not possible to get through to the Corribee owners assosciasion . I have also just purchased a corribee mk 2 ‘giovanna’ which also has been restored as she was in need of some tlc . They are very strong, I know this as we have had to cut holes in numerous places around the boat and the fibreglass layup is very thick . The boat now has a lot of new fittings. If you do find out how to change the details on the owners assosiasion could you please comment on how to do it as I would be very keen to change my details of ‘giovanna’.

Have good sailing this season from Thomas Calcutt

Having recently purchased a Swift 18, on first rigging I managed to snap the steel forestay cable in the Rotostay roller reefing system. Could anyone advise me where I could obtain a replacement cable.

Thanks. Martyn
