Re: Trailer Question - spec and set up needed
My 23CC sits on a Continental Aluminum I-beam bunk trailer. The bunks are on 51" centers. It could probably be as little as 46", But no more than 53". The 4" wide x 6" high bunks are are 6" above the I-beams on the outside. The taper slightly inward to follow the contour of the hull so the entire 4" is touching hull.
IMO, the bunks should extend slightly beyond the transom to be sure you have proper support. A transom saver should always be used on an outboard when entended trailering. Finally, IMO, the tongue weight on a 23 should not exceed 400 pounds and the ball should be at a height that allows the trailer to be exactly level.
I'll be pleased to post images, if you wish.
