Towing
Chris - I have just got the boat on the new combi - it looks very strange perched up high in the air compared to the old trailer. But it's certainly better balanced now (she use to be quite nose heavy) but there looks to be a hell of a lot of boat behind the rear supports on the new trailer - perhaps an optical illusion!!!
The support on iska - ie the trolley cradle, is just under the aft end of the centreboard case. but it is recommended to have some support nearer to the transom really. If it is possible to rig up another bar with padded block to support about 18" in that would be good. U bolts and steel often available at a local builder's merchant or B&Q etc.
Something you can just add on for a long jouyney to help boat stay in shape!

Chris and I were discussing this the other day. The Hornet seems to hang a long way out. We both thought that maybe a support that could be added for long journeys would be beneficial. Whether or not I will get round to doing it is another matter
