Well after a few years of working on my DS1 as time and budget allowed, I finally had her in sail-able condition. I still need to do some cosmetic work though. Any way, I trailered her down to the local great pond and after a few missteps, was able to get her rigged and ready to launch.
Now those of you who live in the Northeast will know just how wet it has been here the last month or so. As a result, the water levels in the ponds around here are quite high. I was unable to back far enough into the pond to launch and even if I would have been able to, I not sure I could have retrieved her. So I'd like to make some sort of extension that I could use to get the trailer further into the water. I remember reading a thread on this a few years ago, but a search found nothing.
Does anyone have an ideas on how I could do this? I realize that I would have to make a solid connection at the ball hitch on the trailer to maintain control, I just haven't figured it out yet!
TIA!
