| mhsorens Tue 30 Apr 2024 16:00:35 | The reason why I'm asking is that a lot of club harbours here have cranes for center-lifting race (and other small) keel boats on and off trailers. Our club have rules excluding the use of slings without a lifting beam and also provides no beam for security reasons. The Manta19 is impossible to slip without submerging most of the trailer and with the subsequent fresh water cleaning and checks it takes time. | |
