26M trailer specifications for licensing needed

Hi all, I am importing A 26M Macgregor and steel trailer with disc surge brakes to Australia and need some specifications for the trailer. These are as follows.

Aggregated trailer mass of trailer ?
Tare mass? (I think this is 575lbs or 260kg)
Gross trailer mass?
Length of trailer?
Width of trailer? (I think this is 8 foot or 2.438m)
Height of trailer?

Thanks in advance for any help

Hi, I sent E-Mail to Sharpmarine asking for help in obtaining the specifications 0f trailer and this is the reply that I received.

We cannot assist with the shipment of second hand or grey market boats overseas.
We have dealers in Australia who would be happy to provide you with a brochure and pricing information on a new MacGregor 26.

So I am still looking for any details that people may know.

Thanks Tim

THis is a reasonable position for them to take, given that they have a distributor in AUS, of course. You cant set up a distribution channel, and then compete with it.
