Turns out he's the guy who bought my Sandpiper 565 11 years ago. Just wanted to tell me that he had it in storage for 8 years but spent about $600.00 installing a lower axle on the trailer and now will be using the boat. Invited me out on it for a sail. Quite decent of him. The Sandpiper guys up here are a good sociable group..still holding annual rendezvous event..either in Quebec, Ontario or in the Michigan Great Lakes area. Surprising how many of the boats ended up below the border. What is a lower axle? -- ----Android NewsGroup Reader---- http://usenet.sinaapp.com/ Say what? I thought y'all were some kind of handiman/fixit guy. Quite often boats sit a bit too high on a trailer for easy launch/recovery at low sloping ramps. One fix is to lower the axle so the boat sits closer to the ground. Sometimes 4" can make a difference. I'm sure there is more than one way to do this. Lowering the axle, setting it under the leaf spring, raises the boat. I bet you mean raising the axle, putting it over the leaf spring. It is still a bad idea tho since you have reduced spring travel and all of the load is on the U bolts. I suppose you could also use smaller wheels but that comes with it's problems too. The tires get hot faster. I suppose that is why they make "tilt" trailers. Just get a dropped axle. And Don, writing replacing the lower axle says there are more than one axle and one is lower than the other. Before you show ignorance by “say what”, read and understand your post, I don't children use that phrase any more. Might be a Canadian thing... |

Queen's English. Shows possession. Or could be Queens' English for multiple queens. LOL! (for Harry) |

No one has suggested they were an authority on queens, Donnee, they suggested that your use of English grammar, spelling, and punctuation sucked. Hopefully that needs no clarification. |
