After going through various options of towing this back to Toronto (since I have no car, we thought of the UHaul, flatbed, etc) - Reached out to CL Boatworks (the manufacturer) and spoke with the president, Dave V. Dave was super helpful and answered a lot of my questions. He also took a look at the trailer pics and warned against it. Dave agreed to pick up the boat in Guelph, tow it to his shop, and give it a once over for [note: he ended up tightening the exit block and halyard cleats for me and throwing in a drain plug & mast safety line]
From CL I also purchased:
- Aluminum Dolly
- Trapeze Kit
- Forestay (and turnbuckle)
- Gull Harness (XL - winter weight)
- Spreaders (for the trap)
At this point, it's March and I can't wait to get this sucker in the water.
The next step is for Dave to tow the boat up to Ashbridges Bay for me in Toronto.
