Hey Kyle, thanks for reaching out!

The CE Smith Multi Sport Plus Boat and Kayak Trailer w/ Bunks # CE48870 can handle up to a 14' boat that weighs up to 800 lbs. As long as your SCAMP sailboat is within those specs you'll be good to go.

Thanks. What modifications would you recommend to fit this unique design boat?

@Kyle We don't have specific kits designed for different boats so I don't have any recommendations off-hand, but if you can let me know what concerns you have about fitment or anything special about the boat I can see if we have anything to help with that. Boat trailers usually have pretty unique parts on them once the owner's start modifying them to fit their boats so unless the boat comes with a trailer, it usually ends up being a "modify it the best you can" kind of project.

@JonG Thanks. This boat needs two vertical bunks/ blocks on the winch post and also a support for an off center dagger/centerboard.

@Kyle Are you talking about a bow stop like the Yates # YRJONBLOCK? I'm also not sure if we have anything for the dagger/centerboard, but I'm linking our listing of boat trailer parts for your reference.

Hey Bob, The 48810 comes with a 72" long tongue so the Replacement Extra Long Trailer Tongue for CE Smith Multi-Sport Trailers #CES45FR at 90" would give you an additional 18" to the total length of the trailer.
