Found it.

http://www.preloved.co.uk/adverts/sh...w-trailer.html

Trailer is an illegal home-built bodge job that someone's been dumb enough to galvanise-there's NO way it's under 750kg with a twin axle unbraked trailer and it appears to be bending under the weight of the boat.

It's a viable project at that price, assuming the transom is OK.

Seems to be a chunk cut out of the transom, it goes down on the middle, mine goes straight across
