Sorry, I have been away from the forum for a while. Yes the single bolt allows it to swivel. Here is the full rig all built on a Harbor Freight trailer and pulled behind a Prius. I know, it looks like The Beverly Hillbillies, but it gets the job done. I drove from NYC to Buffalo NY (400 miles)...

Thanks for the responses. It seemed like such a great idea. I didn’t think the closed cell foam would get waterlogged. I guess, like many good ideas, the theory doesn’t work out in practice. My sailfish has a lip on the top that overlaps the hull (See photos). I don’t see how I would clamp it...

I just finished refitting the trailer for a Sunfish. The Sailfish sat very nicely on a pair of 2x4s but the Sunfish has a much deeper V. Here is what I came up with.

I have had a Harbor Freight Folding Trailer for years. I have towed my sailfish all over the east coast. I usually try to keep my speed under 70 mph but have definitely done 75 for extended periods. The key is just never read the warnings. And my trainer has the 8 inch tires. Not the 12 inch.

I have a sailfish that most of the top has separated from the hull. Before I glue it back together should I just fill it with expanding foam? Also what’s the best way to glue the top back to the hull?
