For some other successful examples:
The Hobie 16 CLASS organized and had a trailer built to get boats back and forth to major national events and they used it to get boats to the Nationals on the West Coast.
I don't want to nit-pick, but the x-country trailer had many more hands involved than just the 16 class. There were several Hobie dealers, Hobie execs, Tiger sailors, H 20 sailors, FX-1 sailors (others), many general members of Div 3 (and other divs), etc, etc. It was a true collaborative event to get that sucker built, and there are plans drawn up for another.
The trailer is capable of hauling many different sizes of boats, not just 16's.
The idea for the trailer is that it will be used as a long term intracontinental transport for many different types of Hobie events, wherever they spring up.
But the context of what you said was spot on, it is a successful example of strengthening a class/ classes.
