Ed,

   I would hardly call it an "engineering" drawing.  I needed to modify my roller style trailer to a bunk board trailer.
   I made the drawing with 2 major concerns in mind:  (1) Getting the boat supported in the correct spots on the hull.  (2) Getting the boat's loaded position in relation to the axle location close to hopefully keep the finished tongue weight in an acceptable range.
   As of yet, I have not towed the boat over the road or measured the tongue weight, so if anyone uses these measurements, PLEASE keep this in mind.

Todd
