Re: Lifting outboard bracket

Hi Pete. Looks a great solution to raising the outboard. If you still have details of parts and measurements I would really like a copy.

breakback trailer

Hi
I recently bought a Swift 18, but have not dipped it in the water yet. The trailer is a breakback type which tilts just behind the axle. Has anyone launched a swift from this type of trailer, any tips would be appreciated, eg, could I get away without dipping the road wheels?
Thanks Chris
