Hey everyone, Im a new cat owner and absolutely loving it so far! This forum has been super helpful to get an understanding of what this boat requires and what its like to sail and is ultimately the reason I took the plunge and got one.

Unfortunately the one that I bought did not come with a trailer. At the time we rigged up a pontoon boat trailer with some 4x4s and a ton of tow straps. This worked well enough but was obviously overkill for such a small boat.

Does anyone have any leads for a trailer in the southeast wisconsin area or neighboring states? Im considering just ponying up the 1500 or so for a brand new one but want to try my luck for a used one in the area first

Thanks and happy sailing!

-Brennan

We just bought a cat near Milwaukee and left behind the trailer. Look on Facebook marketplace.
