Hey All,
I am modifing my trailer. I have an aluminum trailer with guide-ons that I do not like. If someone could email me a picture of the original Mac's guide on posts I would be very thankful. I am looking for the base of the poles as they mount to the trailer. My email address is [email protected]. Happy sails, Tony

I want to say thanks to Craig and Mark!!!!! I welded up some posts today that fit for my new trailer. All I need to do now is connect the two posts together with a rub board. I will hopefully have pictures for the mods section later this weekend. I made them so that I can just run into them and it will center the boat into the trailer. You'll see. Thanks again and happy sails, Tony

I'll be looking forward to seeing how they work. I've been trying to get Jim to put some on ours. Would be so much easier to load on a windy day if you could just aim and go.

Mark,
I won it on Ebay. I think it is a generic Contentail(sp). I have adjusted the supports so that the X rides on it pretty well. I has a little slip room side to side but it rides very well. Check out this link. It has a post of mine that may help.

Mark,
eBay is simply a way for Ace to market, they're not necessarily just "auctioning." You could also try just phoning them a direct offer on a trailer, maybe $2,000 or so . . . explaining that you need less beef than pictured because the Mac is pretty light.

Also, A1 is selling a used trailer ... guess it's a long drive to Annapolis, but you could make him an offer.
