I have a few people interested in my Catalina 25, but they all need a trailer to get it home. Who makes trailers for the C25 WK or even better, anyone have one, or know of where to find a used one?

Here's a few starters for new trailers. You'll have to talk with these folks to find out what they recommend for a C25. The web is probably the best place to start looking for used ones too.

Thanks for the info, just FYI:
Champion requires the boat to be at their yard to custom make a trailer (they're in LA)
EZloader doesn't make sailboat trailers for sailboats with keels and TrailRite makes the trailers but doesn't sell them direct, you have to go through your local catalina dealer.

I just ran into the same prob when I purchased my 88 wing. I bought one through Performance trailers in Tampa FL. They have dealers everywhere. I had to use a travel-lift to set the boat on the trailer. The bunks needed a bit of adjustment. The trailer is great as I KNOW it is reliable. I bought a PSV 25. If you decide to go with this model I can give you the measurements I have set to minimize time in the lift. It only took about 2 weeks for them to deliver.

I was able to get mine wholesale from the dealer I bought the boat from. All up it was around $3000. with 2 axles (one with disk brakes) the keel guide and a ladder on the winch post. You could use this price to get the dealer down a little from list. Needless to say I am a happy customer. let me know if you need any more info. Tom atgep@bellsouth.net

Bought mine from Triad in CT. It was about $4500 4 years ago.

Here are the pics of my trailer. Not to bad for 3 grand. The main reason for me to have the trailer is for hurricanes. That way I can pack her up and run like hell. Wings are to hard to come by!
