| Norcalsailing report featuring Summer Palace:
http://www.norcalsailing.com/entries/2012/06/05/ditchrun2.html#.T-iWoI2Mfqs Below quoted from Pressure Drop: Drew Scott was helming a F-28. "My crew is starting to swing around to pick me up when El Raton, in perfect control slides up beside me and asks if I would like to get picked up. They had already doused their chute and stopped beside me. I took their offer and got back into a boat (trying to stop a lightweight trimaran next to someone when it is blowing in the mid-20s is not easy so I figured I would not turn down El Raton. My crew ably finished the race on Papillon, only one boat behind El Raton! And I had many adventures with El Raton, but that is their story to tell. So, a great big thank you to the Ray Lotto and the crew of El Raton for pulling my soggy hide out of Suisun Bay!! Drew Scott Papillon (most of the time)" |

Not a stupid question at all. The way I have always done it is to thoroughly strap the boat to the trailer. I have use lines in the past but those big, 2" thick ratchet-type webbing straps work best. The long ones that will go from one side of the trailer, up over the boat and back to the trailer. Do this 3 or 4 time down the length of the boat. You also want to make sure the boat doesn't slide backwards, so use one strap to pull the boat forward on the trailer.
Hope that helps.
