Subject: What lakes have you sailed your e27 in?

Bryan:

I've only seen four Express 27s on trailers (one's mine). None of those trailers were set up to ramp launch.

In the case of my trailer, it would require the bottom of the tires to be about six feet eight inches under water before the boat would float.
