[Public-List] Bringing an Alberg home

Hi Dave

You could easily accomplish the job with a hydraulic trailer -- I had my Alberg 30 moved 500 miles on its cradle last spring and did not need a crane at either end.  The mover essentially "scooped" it up and dropped it off 10 hours+ later, cradle and all. It took awhile to get the boat on the trailer -- a lot of maneuvering
and adjusting of the hydraulics, but it eventually worked out.  The drop off took about 3 minutes -- maneuvere the trailer into position and drop the cradle into place.   Very cost effective -- saved me the cost of a crane on both ends of the trip. 

I have some pictures of the move under "Departure" and "Arrival":
