I've sailed for 30 years at various clubs (only one of them a pond) and I've only ever seen one.

Aren't they a complete pain to campaign because they don't break down and are too wide to trail?

Nope they do brake down and then you can trail , doesn't seem to worry them that do and break down rebuild is not a lot worse than some complicated monos , in fact easier.

Tilt Trailer........  Our F-18 has one also as it is too wide for Oz roads

 

One of the more exotic break down trailers - overkill but if you have the $$$ then why not.

T_A,

 

Did you trail with the tramp in all the time?

Some years ago we had a T blow over on the trailer (while moving) with the tramp still in

Hmm, not sure about that. Tilt trailors look an expensive and scary option (to tow) compared to going for a sail. In any case Contender sailors have mates to help.
