1991 Carver 28 Voyager with Flydeck "Trailering Help Please"

Postby woodsbull » August 4th, 2024, 3:46 pm

Good afternoon everyone and all.
I am so glad I came across this forum. I bought a Carver 28 foot Voyager with Flydeck, fixed props. We have to move it back to our place, about 5 hour drive.
Currently, I am fixing up a tri axle trailer 18k total gross.
My question is does anyone have experience with the TRAILER CONFIGURATION as I finalize "fabricating" my trailer? Detailed pictures of a trailer that hauls a 28ft Carver would be awesome :-)
My boat has a keel, two shafts, each one with a strut and rudders.
PS I have hauled heavy haul oversized loads with semi and lowboy. But never a boat on a fixed trailer. I am a tad clueless lol.
Thanks Cliff

You'll need permits.
Brakes on all axles.
A truck that can handle 18k and not be overweight. No cdl is 26,000 max.
You'll probably have to remove some or all of the flybridge.
Thanks
