Yes, I do have a trailer. Seems to be in fair shape. I do think I will need 
to replace the winch after launching in the spring. It is somewhat bent but 
I only drive the trailer 2.6 miles to launch and once again to haul out. I 
drive slow!

I do need some work otherwise. The mainsail is up too high and out of the 
slot. I am just afraid I won't be able to get it back together after pulling 
it out and fixing it. I was wondering if anyone else has done this fix this 
year?

And, as some saw in my earlier posting, the traveler is in front of the 
companionway and now I think I would like the original one in the rear.

I should see how far away I really am from the factory and schedule a visit 
in the early spring!

Maybe you souterners should come up and experience our traditional Polar 
Bear Swim for sight in March. It's very refreshing to say the least! They 
usually need to cut a large hole in the lake for the event.
