Need trailer needed

[Richie50]

I just launched to day. Very slow start here on Long Island. Trailer did not make it to launch ramp without a tow. So I now need a new trailer. What is recommended in the New York area. Willing to look at new for now. What manufacturers would you recommend. Thanks Richie

There's that place in Riverhead at the traffic circle. I don't know if they do sailboat trailers or adapt existing to sailboats. Otherwise I'd look at custom purveyors like Triad (But don't rule out others.) If you have to bite you might as well get something that fits your use and you can maintain. Look for galvanized , adjustable tongue, accessories to support your mast. A good trailer can make the trailer sailer experience a positive. A crappy one a nightmare.
