Hi Folks,I'm new here, so please bear with me, and thanks in advance for any info. you can provide! I'm the proud, most recent owner of a 1979 Pearson 26. I need to pull her out of the water and move her to effect some repairs and maintenance. I have a trailer (originally designed to carry a 26' cabin cruiser) which I have already modified to carry a 26' bilge keeled Snapdragon sailboat. (turned it into a flat-bed - the Snapdragon is a tripod)Does anyone have any recommendation with regard to modifying this trailer to carry my Pearson 26? Shoud I just use boat stands and straps? I've been told that designs are out there that provide for a custom-built cradle which conform in a practical way to the specs. of the hull.......does anyone have experience in this regard? I am a highly competent wood and metal worker, so I would rather do the work myself - I'm just at a bit of a loss as to how to procceed without re-inventing the wheel so to speak.Thanks!
