John,

Congratulations on your new boat. I looked for an E-27 high and low in Annapolis and eventually found #84 in MA, had a trailer made as part of the deal and hauled it down here to Baltimore in a snow storm (not recommended). Triad Traliers in New Milford, CT made mine (galvanized, single axle for about $3000). Their number is 860-354-1146. I'll warn you, they make a lot of trailers and get backlogged quickly, especially if you want galvanizing (which you do).

As far as pulling it up to NJ for you, I wouldn't be interested due to the liability; but might consider renting you the trailer or lending a hand. That's really not a great option either though and, truth is, for the money you can save in storage by owning your own trailer and storing the boat in your neighbor's backyard, the new trailer is the way to go. Or...sail it up to Avalon. I know someone who just sailed a J-24 up to NY.
