357 Mag Alpha 1
Does anyone have a document that details the 268's hull that could be used for trailer setup? Details like what the angle at the keel is, etc would be helpful.

I have the trailer stripped down right now and will be replacing the bunk boards.
The boat did ride on the trailer but did not sit as level as I would like. I know I can straighten it up when I land it again but the adjustments would be quicker and easier with the boat off the trailer.
Thanks
Dave
 
Angle at the stern is referred to as "deadrise" - you can find that term in the manual, or with SR's online manuals. There are no documents available that will tell you any other angles. It's an educated guess for the first fitment, then adjust after that.

Another measurement that you may want to get is the distance between lifting strakes. You could do that with the boat in the water... may have to hold your breath, though!
