I have a Catalina 28 Wing Keel, that i need to haul occasionally for maintenance.
I have found an old O'Day 272 trailer. Does anyone know if i could just ease the Catalina onto that, or would it need to be modified.
Also, Does anyone know the trailer weight of a '93 Catalina 28?

thanks,

The axles decide. Each axle usually has 5k - 6k lbs of capacity. The boat weighs at least 9,000 lbs with gear loaded. So, for driving around the boat yard, a two-axle trailer with a good frame may suffice. On the road would be a different matter. We have a triple axle, 15,000 pound capacity trailer for hauling the boat.
Good luck,
Tim

Plus if you pop a tire (or bearing) on a double, you're pretty much stopped, but with a triple, you can limp someplace.
