Hello, newbie question here... I am sure my question is a frequent one, and yet I wasn't able to find it in the forum (the search function seems a little finicky, to say the list)
I have been launching my TI from a floating slip for the last six months. Now I got a trailer.
I can't leave the boat assembled with the akas folded when not in use, because that pushes the amas backwards, further back than the hull, and the contraption doesn't fit in my garage. By taking the akas out, I can slide the amas forward and solve the problem.
My question is whether I could/should assemble the boat (with folded akas) for transportation, after I get it out of the garage. So far I have not, but that adds a few steps upon arrival to the beach - namely inserting akas and amas (albeit with the benefit of not having to carry the whole thing for the 100 yards or so that it takes to get to the water).
So, do you:
* Trailer the boat assembled, akas folded, or
* Trailer the three components in stand-alone mode, without the akas?
Thanks for taking the time to read this post
