Has / does anyone launch a 272 themselves each season? I have been getting my 272 lifted and having my mast raised by crane.
I have built a ginpole and mast crutch, so I am planning to step / lower my mast myself. But what about launching from a trailer? My trailer has no extension. I have a couple of good public ramps locally, so the ramp is not a problem. I have a Ram 1500 pickup. I have pulled my friend's Oday 26 several times with no strain, so I feel I have the truck to do it. But am I going too far? Any ideas?
Thanks,
Andrew
