410 Shipping height help!

MojosBoat

We bought a Rinker 41 and trying to get it shipped, we need the shipping height with the arch down. We have it scheduled but they are not sure if they can until we have the height. I have searched everywhere and can not find any info.

We had ours shipped to it’s storage spot a couple of weeks ago. The arch will rest on top of the transom so your height will be from the bottom or the hull to the top of the windshield. You should be able to easily get that measurement. Your hauler will need to lower the trailer bunk as much as possible. The 410 is a very tall boat. I will try to post a couple of pics.

Thanks, the problem is, I'm 8 hours away. I am trying to get this done long distance. My shipper is worried that it will be too tall. he is asking for the height from bottom to the highest point. i have seen his rig and from pics I have seen, I think he will be ok, but he wants a dimension I can not find.

Who is lowering the arch? can they take a measurement for you.

Not sure if these pics will help your hauler . As you can see we had left the forward Bimini rail up but should have probably removed it. It is a royal pain in the a$$ to fold the arch. Took six of us as you have to pass it along to fold it down .

Thanks for the all the help.  We got a measurement from the bottom of the boat to the top of the windshield.  its 11'-10".   Looks like with will be able to transport it.  The Marina is going to lower the arc on Monday. Shipper is due Tuesday morning the 9th. Our scheduled delivery is Wednesday the 10th. Can't wait for her to get here.

Those boats are a pain in the a$$ to move. I hope once we get it back to the marina this spring that we can keep it there. Good luck with your move.

Thanks for all the help. Boat left yesterday and will arrive mid day today.

we used to trailer both the 410 and 420 all the time. Heck, we even had two drive on trailers pulled by Ford 550 crew cabs.  The folding arch is great , minimum 2 people but 3 is nice.  Power on, power off.  

Any Specs or pics of your trailers I'm looking to trailer a 2005 360 Fiesta Vee?

We have been Rinker Owners for the last 3 years. Sold our 342 to buy this 410.

The factory used Trailmaster Trailers for all of their boats. Trailmaster has the specs for all of the Rinkers produced.
