Trailer adjustment

If you bring it up more you will really need to make sure you do somthing as you will now be right on top of that tounge!!
And don't forget the more you push forward the more weight on your truck!!
To fix that you will have to move the axle forward also to take the weight off the front and more to ther rear.

i would make it a bunk trailer just take the rollers off measure the boat on trailer and make your bunks out to the current transom actually i'd make then about 6 to 8 inches longer then move the boat back some so you will have a better balanced load.

Here are my thots. I have a Load Rite 2 Axle under my Wellcraft 250 but it looks an awfull lot like yours.

1. Although the trailer does look a little short it looks like you can open you hatch okay. How much clearance do you have in that respect? The rear most rollers should be a little closer to the transom. If you can then move the winch stand up and move the axle up.

2. How close are the inner rollers to each other on the forward bunk? Mine are around six inches apart. Pinching them together will raise the bow. My guess is this is you biggest problem.

3. How far apart are the rollers on the rear bunk. Spreading them will drop the stern. For every inch that you drop the stern you will likely gain the same in the front as the hull pivots on the front bunk.

4. As a last resort I would raise the front crossmember to the next notch but I don't recall seeing one that way.

5. All of my trailer hardware looked like yours. This means that you need to grind, torch, replace everything that you need to put a wrench on.
