You guys keep talking about how good bunks are, then you go and submerge your $3000 trailer in salt water and complain a few years later because you have to replace springs, brakes, crossmembers, etc.
The only part of my trailer that gets wet are the tires and maybe the bottom of the first crossmember. I have my cable out to the end of the trailer, then using the dock lines, I just guide the bow to the edge of the trailer, snap the hook onto the bow eye, pull the lanyard for the powerwinch and guide the boat on while the winch pulls her aboard. When I get home a quick washdown with the hose to remove any salt off the back and I'm good to go. I truthfully don't think I've ever replaced a spring or a brake due to rust or corrosion. So you bunk guys go ahead and keep dunking your trailers all the way into the brine... The trailer makers just love you. Advantage - roller trailers
