Trailer dimensions for 26D or S?

Post by warren631 »

Anyone got a drawing or sketch with any dimensions for a 26 classic trailer? I want to modify a trailer I got cheap to fit my 26D.

This would be my guess, but without a height relative to bunks, etc; I’m not sure what to do with that dimension.

Where is the weight center of gravity on the 26D? Is that at the mast? On most trailers I have seen the trailer axel is about at the cabin bulkhead (companionway).
