E Z Loader Boat Trailers
Time is running out for us northern sailers, soon we will be walking on water. Time to start thinking about loading my C-26 on the trailer. This will be my First Loading of a C-26 on a E Z Loader Trailer. I have the E Z Loader Operators Manual, But any advice on Loading would be willcome. My ramp is steep, how much of the trailer should be in the water for loading??? Rollers no bunks, my C-20 an Mac 25 have bunks when loading on trailer I first lower keel haft way down, to back of boat keep in line with trailer. The ramp is so steep that, after the boat is out of the water it is two feet away from the stop's. An with boats on rollers always use safty chain an be sure to lock winch. I will try to phost photos! imghttp://s701.photobucket.com/albumsimg (Lenk dos not work) To tired to keep tryen Some day I may get it right but not today (SARY)

Thank you for the reply, I would like to see you, an help you with your boat. Monday is calling for rain, so no sailing. I will try to find your boat
The borrowed trailer I use for Windward has pads & bunks rather than rollers, and I have to sink it pretty deep. I use a couple of jeep tow straps totaling around 26', and usually back down until my rear tires touch the water. Still doing some fine tuning.

Of your new trailer has rollers (not bunks) keep track if you have you winch locked or not.
The dock attendents where I launch where telling me they had 3 pot stinkers roll off there trailers before they got to the water this season
