Y'all with tilting rigs might want to go check out Tilley's tilt rig design. I posted a link to pics of it earlier.

I've had one for years, now. Like Dave himself, it's a bit out of the box.

I won't even worry about stripping my trampoline back until it's blowing in the 30s, and then I'd just skin the tramp back. And even then, not because the rig has EVER lifted a wheel, but because gusts cause the rig to fishtail, skates sideways a bit, but so far in 7 years of using it I've NEVER seen my rig lift.

Really. Go check the pictures.

The rig uses a basic cat trailer or powerboat A-frame. The rack bolts to it. This means it's easily convertible.

Tilley rack gets its stability from a.WIDENING THE AXLE to 8'6" - like our multihulls, it's all about beam stability; and b.Keeping the weight as low as possible. Look where the lower hull is in comparison to the wheels.

The best thing about the Tilley rack is that it holds the boat BY ITS BEAMS. That means no stress/crush pressure on the hulls, especially side forces like conventional tilt rigs impose.

Its one 'con,' and you may not view this as a 'con,' is that it takes 2x boat width to operate. The rack tilts the boat right to the ground next to its trailer. No having to haul it off cradles. Find a flat area, crank, boat is over and down.

Go check it out at the link I provided. You might like.
