SHETLAND OWNERS ASSOCIATION

Hello all,

I want to fish my Family 4 out of the water next year for a pressure wash and ant- foul.
I have room at the mooring site, on the river Yare,for either a trailer or to use boat stands as i would never
use the trailer for any other use than a lift out every 3 years or so!!!
Can anyone advise a good type of stand,how many i would need for a family 4 to make it stable on the ground to work on
and also where they can be bought please, online or in the Norwich area?

Finally if i looked at the trailer option can anyone advise the best type/length etc for a family 4 and if anyone knows of any
second hand outlets i could try, especially in the norfolk area.

Many Thanks

Tony

Any trailer that will be braked and can carry at least 1100 kg. If just only for boatyard use you can use anything. If you'll go on the road it has to be roadworthy as well.
Couple of wooden blocks will work perfectly. Keel support (2 points) + blocks at the stern both sides + blocks in the middle of the hull on port and starboard sides. I did it couple of times with my boat and she was perfectly stable. Its a small boat so no magic needed.

Many thanks Adam,

That all sounds straightforward, your advice greatly appreciated!

Cheers

Tony
