West Mersea – other models: the collective register page for boat trailers outside the named ranges, for sailing classes Dragon, Etchells and Mumm 30, 140 to 870 kg kerb weight
This page brings together West Mersea trailers that the register could not assign to a named range. The brand name refers to the English coastal town of West Mersea in Essex, known for its sailing club. The model names state the boat class directly: Dragon Road Trailer, Etchells Road Trailer and Mumm 30 Road Trailer are road trailers for the international one-design classes of the same name, while Swallow names a further boat class.

The register lists 13 versions here with kerb weights from 140 to 870 kg and gross vehicle weights from 1,500 to 3,000 kg. Widths range from 2,050 to 2,350 mm, matched to the hull widths of the respective boat classes.
Road trailers for racing yachts such as Dragon, Etchells or Mumm 30 are matched to the exact hull profile of the class, since these boats are built to strict one-design rules and must be transported without damage to keel or hull. The market for such class-specific boat trailers is small and closely tied to the relevant sailing associations.
When buying used, check the rollers and support pads for keel and hull, the condition of the winch and cable, how freely the axles turn after saltwater exposure, and corrosion on the chassis and fittings. Also check the lighting, the condition of tyres and bearings, and the fit of the keel rollers and supports to the specific boat profile.

What to check before buying
- Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
- Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
- Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
- Compare the chassis number with the papers.
- Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
