Need a Vega trailer

Catherine, you might want to try Richard Trawick in Vancouver if you can't find one closer. He was selling the trailer he used to haul Mr Perfect (#813).

Subject: [AlbinVega] Need a Vega trailer

I need a trailer for my 1972 Vega - Or the plans to have one built. I need to trailer my boat out of the water at the end of October so I can continue refurbishing the boat during the winter months. All suggestions welcome.

I got a quote here in florida of 5 grand ish for a custom built trailer. I also considered buying a flatbed and jack stands modified to hold it in place. Not sure how stable for working on it it would be

When I was looking at trailers last year, the least expensive mfg was a guy in Maine. I think Triad Trailers has the specs to make one, but they are probably 5-6K. I ended up buying a trailer on ebay that was somewhat adjustable (originally from a Norsea 27) then reworked it to fit the Vega. It was a lot of work.

Although I have not done it I believe some owners have built a cradle for the boat and put it on a flat equipment trailer, the type used for tractors. There are plans for a cradle in the VORM (Vega Owners Repair Manual) at the American Vega Association web site. Look under "miscellanea, pg 10.
