I need some help finding a trailer/trolley for the 470. The type is a "bottom-down" trailer, with the trolley sliding right up the trailer for easy launching/transportation. An example is the Dixon-Bate West Mersea 220-275 Road Base 275 Model - 275RB Dixon-Bate West Mersea 275 470 Gunwale Hung Trolley - C27T470

US suppliers seem to have stopped making this combination and Dixon-bate or other suppliers in England do not want to ship to the US. Laser performance (seitech dolly supplier) stopped making their "bottom-down" version although they plan to launch a new version by summer 2009.

Anyone knows a supplier that sells the trailer/trolley combination. Your help is greatly appreciated.

Frank,

You need both the dolly and the road trailer?

I have a trailer where the dolly sits on the trailer and then the trailer hinges in the middle so that you can slide the dolly on and off the trailer (which is relatively easy at least in theory!).

Not sure that I can help you, but I will take a look at my trailer and see who built it if that is the kind of design you were looking for.

Where are you located?

Zar

Dear Zar -

Thank you for the quick reply and trailer suggestion! I am interested in the roadbase/trolley combination since it is really easy to launch boats. This combination is hard to find. I have a seitech dolly that could work with the trailer you suggested. If you have the trailer name name/product#, I would like to take a look at it. I am located in San Diego.

Thanks again,

Frank
