[Rhodes22-list] Retrieval of Boat

[R22RumRunner at aol.com]

Claude,
Well done. You did well by acquiring a Trail Master trailer. The single  axle 
pulls like a dream. As you have figured out, weight distribution and  
placement of the boat on the trailer are important. I've found that all I need  is 
just the front edge of the bunks sticking out, That way I can tell where they  
are and the boat slides all the way on to the trailer. Don't forget to raise 
the  centerboard all the way before placing her back in the water.
Funny thing about drinking rum and coke, the more you have the better you  
feel. I know you are a man of impeccable taste, so I'm sure you were drinking  
Mt. Gay. 
I carry a small (larger than a show box) plastic contained on the boat  
loaded with bungee cords of varying length. You will find they come in very  handy, 
especially when trying to get all the shrouds tied together and wrapped  
against the mast.
As always, in case you need assistance, you have my phone number.
 
Rummy
