Tropical Storm Dolly is headed for South Texas and I'm getting nervous!

If anyone knows of a good trailer for sale in the Texas/ Western Louisiana area that will work for a Catalina 25 wing keel I'd appreciate a lead.

If anyone knows of someone that will loan me a trailer for a week or two or haul my boat away from the coast I'd like a lead.

I'd prefer to buy a good trailer so I can get the boat out of the weather and do maintenance during the winter months.

Thanks in advance for your help and support!

Dolly has passed. Is your boat okay? Did you find a trailer? Been out of town all last week and didn't see your post until today.

The boat is Ok! Thanks for asking!

Dolly passed about 275 miles southwest of my boat. We got some sustained winds of 20 - 25 mph at the most and some rain but nothing to worry about. I didn't even go down and put on the extra mooring lines I had purchased or move the boat to the hurricane hole marina I found.

Never did find a trailer in my price range and I'm still looking so if you hear of anything in the Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma area let me know.

There's a gentleman who has a trailer advertised on Craigslist that has a trailer for sale across the bridge from my marina. It was built for a 28' fin keel so it could probably be modified for my boat but he wants $4,200.00 for it which is more than I'm willing to pay.
