Hello again,
Boy do I feel stupid. Not only did I double post my last two messages, I asked for swing keel trailer measurements, when in fact I need wing keel trailer measurements.
Sorry about that. I really should proofread my messages better.
Thanks

Frank - Try contacting the Catalina factory customer support by e-mail. They must publish some kind of hull measurements that Trailer fabricators can use to build custon trailers. The company that built "Quiet Time"'s trailer is only a mile from my house; they have all the measurements for all trailerable Catalinas on file. This might be because there are several hundred C-22's and C-25/250's in Northern California, and he has built at least couple of hundred original and replacement Catalina trailers since 1980. Also try calling some local trailer fabricators in your area, you may find one or more already have this info on file. Have you found a C-25 WK to buy?

Thanks Larry,
That's a good idea, contacting Catalina. I contacted a manufacturer in Houston, which is where the boat I'll be looking at is. It's an 89 wing. Not sure the rig size. I'll go with either. He was recommended by the Sailboat shop in Austin, as he makes their trailers, and he said he knows most of the measurements, but his trailers are adjustable. He says to bring the boat on by his shop and he'll do final adjustments for me for free.

Thanks
Frank
