So i Bought a Redwitch
for those who dont know A Red Witch is a shallow draft 20-foot (6 m) trailerable, fixed keel yacht, designed to fit under major bridges on the Swan River in Western Australia, development by Hill & Cameron Yachts.

i Purchased mine for $1000 in what i deemed to be average to poor condition. the trailer was practically a wright off. however the hull seemed to be damage free, just in need of a good sand and paint.

However it done come with a few treats including
3 sets of sail ( 3 by 3 main, jib and spin)
a 9.9hp outboard
4 new beds
2 CB's
4 brand new life jackets
and a box of assorted bits and bots



And the Trailer

Those awesome Rims are how i managed to "squeeze" it through my garage and get it out the back.


First job was removing the Yacht from the trailer. i did this bu jacking the trailer, then supporting the hull and lowering the trailer.


Rear End Supported


Front supported too and trailer out
