Re: Hauling an Alberg 30 on my own

My personal mooring field. The corn in this field didn't make it.

Re: Hauling an Alberg 30 on my own

Here we are on part of my farm last spring.

I had rice 10 feet under water at that spot. The rice survived being underwater for two weeks and I made a crop off it.

Re: Hauling an Alberg 30 on my own

Here is a pic of the big tractor with my catalina 22 behind it.

The water was receding so we pulled her out.

Re: Hauling an Alberg 30 on my own

I did that last year!

We had a historic flood (500 year level) here in Arkansas. Half my farm was under water. I hooked up my Catalina 22 on its trailer to my 8 wheel drive tractor and drove it...

Re: Hauling an Alberg 30 on my own

I had no problem with the ramp using a 4wd pickup. I had trouble with the sailboat sliding off the trailer!

The bottom of the boat had slime all over it (freshwater boat so slick bottom). My...

The dolly came with the boat and trailer as a package.

If you can weld it would be easy to fabricate.

Re: Hauling an Alberg 30 on my own

The lake my sailboat was on dosen't have a lift. That's why I pulled it myself. My only other option was to haul it with a crane. A bigger sailboat was hauled out that way.

Re: Hauling an Alberg 30 on my own

When I got it on the trailer and up on the flat it wasn't that hard to pull. It was hard to stop though! I have a heavy 3/4 ton truck and it handles it fine. I knew someone who pulled a Catalina 27...

Re: Hauling an Alberg 30 on my own

My sailboat was in a tornado so the mast was removed for me! Can't help you there. The marina was rolled up and...
