I just purchased a Chrysler 26 without a trailer. I was wondering if there was anyone in MI who may have a trailer for the swing keel version and be willing to give me a hand. I would be willing to pay you for your trouble or to rent a trailer from you. In addition, my boat came with a couple of extra main sails, would be willing to barter in exchange for help moving the boat from St. Clair Shores to Bay City.
Feel free to PM me or call at 989-708-7683. Thanks.

Chrysler20%26 is a gentleman and a scholar. That's one of the best parts about sailors, they are alway willing to help. We will be travelling to SE MI tomorrow to pick up the boat. Also learned today that Chrysler20%26 and I will be neighbors for at least the remainder of the season in Au Gres.
Thanks again, Bob!

Yep, Thaking a road tripe to help a sailer. My truck an trailer but to good use to help another C-26 owener, an make a sailing frend. Only request of me is that he payes expenses ( gas ) I called Sail Bob 2 yesterday, he is fine. But has to much home work to do this year. So as of yet he has not but his boat in. He may be up to lending his slip to another Chrysler. It will be nice having another C- 26 near by, today shuld be a good day.

Change of owner ship, Dick Koller's ( Dick's Moby ) Boat photos can be found @ lizardes.net. Road tripe of 334 miles ( round tripe ) an 10 hr. of time. Was a good tripe, but for a miner mishap. A bump in the road, cosed the outboard to come down from the tilt up to down posison cousing the rope to come off that was holding the rudder up. I found the rope in the road the nexed day. while on my way to help Ryan rase the mast. We travled 12 miles with the rudder on the road, it may be 1 to 2 inches shorter. But works fine. Nice boat, Dick toke us sailing, an I lerned some new tricks about sailing. I am happy to be of help.
