I am the proud owner of a Horizon Day Cat and have decided to trailer the boat. I have been docking the boat. I have a trailer from another boat and want to configure the trailer for my Day Cat. Can anyone help me by providing measurements for the length of the 3 bunk supports. Your help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your consideration.
Hi, DaveF, and welcome to the CPYOA forum! Congratulations on your Horizon Day Cat — I've had the pleasure of seeing one in person and they are phenomenal boats — so excited for you to partake in lots of sailing adventures!
RE: the trailer: I believe the information you seek is tucked away, here, inside the forum someplace. I will see if I can try to do some searches on the forum to track down the info you're looking for. I'll post back again if I can locate the info — otherwise, another member on the forum may know exactly where to look at can point you more quickly in that direction.
If things were as they used to be, I'd refer you directly to the helpful folks at Com-Pac Yachts, but sadly as they've closed their doors for business, earlier this year, that option is no longer available. Another suggestion might be reaching out to the dealers listed on what remains of the old Com-Pac website (https://www.com-pacyachts.com/ (https://www.com-pacyachts.com/)) — I always found that Rob Voigt, the former Com-Pac dealer out of Michigan, was extremely helpful:
Great Lakes Sailboat Co., LC

Many of the Factory Com-Pac trailers were built by Magic-Tilt. They may have a file with measurements.
Good Luck!

Hi Dave. I have a new Triad trailer that was made for the Horizon. I will measure it and post next week when I am out where the trailer is stored. Sail on, Al
Thanks to all who have responded. I have spoken to Rob Voigt and he provided help with a contact at Magic Tilt. Magic Tilt won't share the measurements. I understand that.
Alsantini, your help will be appreciated greatly. Thank you.
Hi Dave. I could help get these dimensions. Please DM me.
