All work is done, just waiting for an opportune day to launch her when the boat ramp isn't so jacked up. I'm amazed at how well she shines up after 27 years.:D

Looks good mate - U should feel lucky to haul your girl out with a trailer instead of a travel lift crane - my 11,000 pound bohemouth will cost U an extra $400 + bucks to haul out, wash & block, even before any scraping & bottom paint goes on! Cheers.

The reason you just described is what made me decide to stay with the C27, much more easily placed on a trailer. Actually, our boat yard has a couple big trailers that will adjust to accommodate up to 45 ft, pretty cool set up.

Yeah, I remember when I had our ol' C 25 on a trailer - the only downside is that its really difficult to sand & paint underneath the trailer rollers or bunks. U have to move the boat a lil' before launching to hit those spots - or you'll have tons of growth in small 1 foot wide squares everwhere! Don't forget to paint under the rollers!
