Re: Typhoon (and larger CDs...), trailers for sale...

Hi Alan,

I live in Alton, NH, and my boat has been winter stored on wooden cradle. Boat yard informed me that next fall the yard will only work with boats on trailers so I'll be looking for trailer for CD typhoon Weekender. Galvanized is fine. Not a rush job as I have year.

Thanks,

Tom Adams
