We unfortunately do not have exactly the spring you are looking for. What I recommend is getting the 3-Leaf Slipper Spring w/ Radius End for 1,500-lb Trailer Axles - 24-5/8" Long # SP-178275 and moving your rear hanger forward because you will be within 1/4 inch of where your axle would have been with this spring. Then you will be able to replace springs as needed and still support your sailboat properly for transport. If you want a bolt on slipper spring hanger for the rear, I recommend the CE Smith Rear Hanger Bracket for Trailer Slipper Springs - Galvanized Steel # CE14017G.
