Trailering a Tiger Cat

Can I trailer a 2005 Tiger Cat on rollers? I just bought it and it has no trailer. My current trailer is a roller. I need to pick it up immediatly and don't have time to get cradles yet. Will it hurt it?

In a word, yes.

You need cradles.

Bean,
It always depends. But like Karl says, simple put yes. It's just a matter of when.
The Tiger hulls will dent. Don't ask how we know.
So if you're on a single roller, I'd wrap/pad them with towels, blankets, foam or something to reduce the point pressure from the rollers.

And good luck with your new toy!

If it were me, I'd take a 2"x6" piece of lumber about 12" long. Nail two small pieces of wood to the bottom of the main piece of wood spaced apart the diameter of the trailer roller (they keep the 12" long piece from slipping off). Then throw a bunch of towels or carpet down and put the boat on that. It's not as good as a cradle, but it'll spread out the load a heck of a lot better then the roller and you can make it quick and cheap.

Luck enough I found a set of cradles local. Can you guys tell me what the width is that I need to mount them? Front? Rear?

Thanks again
