Thank you! The last big trailer I bought the manufacturer was able to measure my boat for an exact fit. That’s not possible this time but I am trying to get as close to an exact fit as I can.
Looks like I am going to have to order as I have not found one in stock yet. Do you know (1) how much length they took out of your trailer and (2) what your total height is to the top of the arch with the anchor light folded down and tv and gps antennas removed? Do you think there are some...
Great modifications, I have been thinking an electric winch and jack would be great to have. I am also going to add a ladder to whatever trailer I get. I had a local welding shop put one on my old 260 trailer and I was able to easily launch/retrieve solo.
Good looking rig. I have a 2008 290 DA and am looking for a trailer. Did you purchase model VATB-12625? Curious whether you would change anything if you were to purchase another?

I moved my boat from the Arkansas River to Lake Hamilton for the summer and have had recurring problems getting the anchor to both set initially and, once it has, to stay set. The shank was bent a little. I have an all chain rode and typically lay out enough chain for a 5 or 7 to 1 scope...
Cjameson,
Are these pictures what you are looking for? This extended aft Bimini top is part of the camper canvas option (which encloses the cockpit) for the 290 Sundancer.
Thanks, I appreciate your information - it is helpful as I finalize the build specs for the trailer.
The boat is on the Arkansas River which is still recovering from recent flooding. So I will need to travel if I am to use the boat at all for the foreseeable future.
Solly, thanks for the reply!
Had not thought of adding the electric jack, electric winch and "The Vault" hubs - great ideas.
The trailer manufacturer I am talking with is including the side guides, torsion axles, led lights and bow ladder (I had one added to my last trailer and it made one...
I am about to order a trailer for my 2008 290 Sundancer. The general specifications are a 15,000 lb capacity aluminum I beam construction with electric over hydraulic brakes on all 3 axles. The question I have for all those 2006 to 2008 290 owners out there who have trailers concerns the total...
