Boat trailers: ideal for handling in shipyards

The handling and management of boats are key aspects within shipyards and require specific and safe professional equipment. For this reason, Navaltecnosud Boat Stand, an Italian company specializing in the production of cradles and stands for shipyards, has designed various models of boat trailers. These trailers transport both motor and sailing boats, positioning them with maximum safety within shipyards. They are perfect equipment for the handling and management of boats in technical areas, as well as for space optimization.

Motorboat Trailers

Navaltecnosud Boat Stand offers five models of motorboat trailers. The most innovative is the CAV: an amphibious trailer with hydraulic pistons, suitable for launching and available in versions of 3, 6, 10, or 15 tons. Quick and easy to use for land positioning, thanks to convenient solid rubber wheels and watertight bearings, the CAV moves smoothly over all yards, whether gravel, asphalt, or concrete.

Here are its main technical features:

  • 4.8 liters per minute gear pump

  • 1800 W electric motor

  • Hot-dip galvanized S355 steel lifting arms

  • Electrically controlled power unit

  • Power cable with plug

  • Stainless steel hydraulic cylinders

  • Telescopic towing axle

  • Stern support: 2 fixed external fenders

  • Bow support: “V” guide with sliding fenders to better center the boat’s length and hull shape

  • 1 kit of reflectors and safety warnings

  • Containment axle

The other four models of motorboat trailers are as follows:

  • CAR-M : Practical, versatile, and easy to use for safely moving boats and inflatable boats in yards, even on uneven surfaces. Available in 3 or 5-ton versions.
  • SE (motorboat saddle): Ideal for small and medium motorboats and inflatable boats, available in 3, 5, or 7-ton versions. The saddles can be moved with a forklift as they are equipped with fork slots and come with two fixed and two swivel wheels with brakes. Heights, dimensions, and capacities can be customized.
  • SE NAV (transportable saddle with motorized trolley): A cradle for transporting motorboats on ships or trucks, with customizable dimensions to meet specific needs. The side stands have adjustable tilt and height, and are equipped with a cap with a 360° swiveling ball and an adjustable screw. Capacity ranges from 10 to 100 tons, or more upon request.
  • SET EXPO (transportable saddle with motorized trolley): A cradle for transporting motorboats on ships or trucks. As with SE NAV, all dimensions, both length and width, can be customized to specific requirements. It features a convenient keel support and adjustable side arms with screws, on which fenders are positioned to better cushion the load. Available in 5, 10, 15, or 20-ton versions.

Models for Sailing Boats

There are various models of trailers for sailing boats. In this case, Navaltecnosud Boat Stand offers four different models. The flagship model is the INV, a transportable cradle with a motorized trailer, recommended for sailing boats ranging from 25 to 200 tons. The INV consists of two modules appropriately positioned towards the stern and bow. Each module of the INV is composed of a lower part that fits into the trailer, while the upper part is wider than the trailer to allow a convenient support for transportation. On the upper part of this module, either the boat’s custom cradles, provided by the shipyard, or height-adjustable props can be positioned. The weight of the two structures with the boat is supported directly on the trailer’s beams, unlike normal saddles which use the trailer’s forks.

All dimensions of the INV can be customized according to the size of the motorized trailer that will be used for moving the boats.

The other three models of trailers for sailing boats are also very interesting:

  • SET (saddle for sailing boats): A transportable cradle with motorized trailers equipped with forks and crossbars, allowing simultaneous lifting of both the boat and the cradle. Ideal for optimizing space in shipyards and ensuring the safety of boats, it is available in various widths, depending on the trailer’s internal wheel width, and various lengths. Load capacities, dimensions, and the number of props are customizable according to specific needs. Available in capacities ranging from 3 to 30 tons.
  • SET (saddle with gull-wing props for beamy boats): A transportable cradle with a motorized trailer that fits into the designated space, rises on its pistons, and simultaneously lifts the cradle with the boat, transporting it easily and safely within the shipyard, optimizing space. Available in capacities of 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, or 50 tons.
  • T-FORM: a transportable cradle for sailing boats with a motorized trailer, ideal for trailers with a very narrow internal wheel measurement. It optimizes space in shipyards while ensuring the safety of the boats. Available in capacities of 10, 12, 15, 20, or 25 tons.
