Default 32 B ramp launching?

I have a 32 that is almost done. The boat is a bravo boat on a skater trailer. To test I am going to need to ramp it in.

How deep of a ramp do I need?
What is the best way to rinse the trailer to slow rusting?
Thanks
Steve

Get in touch with Paul(TZrider), he had a 32B and ramped it here in Pompano, I have his # if you need it. Lets see some pics of the boat

I think steve is going to be really happy with his boat. We did a quick run on lake seminole, and we were pretty impressed with how well the boat accelerates. No top end numbers yet due to a bad water pump impeller, but I will say it jumped up to 108 very quickly and was climbing. I still think the boat is going to run close to 120.

Oh Yeah! I'm guessing SS brake lines & SS Kodiak Disc brakes too!
