Anyone have any experience with putting a fixed keel C5 on a swinger's trailer? Will it fit with or without modification?

It won't fit without modification. The keel for the fin vertsion sticks down alot further than the swinger. If it has rollers they will need to be extended. You will also need to modify the keel support on the trailer. It can be done.

The C5 is a little big for a boat trailer, but if you have one, you can fly your boat to the Nationals--maybe even with the mast up!
