Default Trailer...

[QUOTE=Destroyer;160024]Ok, I'm stumped. You have what looks like a Shoreline trailer. They were made back in the 1980's. Wonderful, really strong trailers. But to the best of my knowledge they never made a combination roller-bunk trailer. You have bunks in the back and rollers in the front. /QUOTE]

Well Destroyer, you are very observant. First off all, your boat is absoultely stunning. I wish mine looked as good as yours. Secondly, you are correct about the bunks and rollers.
The trailer that came with my boat was a single axle but when I looked at the trailer ownership, it said 2 axles. The single axle trailer with the boat on it weighed in at 4200 Lbs. The axles on the single were rated at 3600 lbs. After looking at most of the pics on the site it occured to me that most everyone use dual axle trailers. Before I sold the the trailer, I swapped the rollers for the bunks as you see here. Hoping that would solve my problem- it didn't.

I could provide a video of me at the dock. I normally generate quite a crowd of people. and a line up of boats waiting to dock. I think you just want to see me in action cursing and swearing. Getting soaked to the bone and then the grand fineally...everyone is applauding when I am finished. It might be rated PG13.

I be on holidays in 2 weeks and plan to put the boat in then. Be sure to watch when I try to pull the boat out with my 2 wheel drive GMC. After about three attempts, The crowd starts to pile in the box to add traction....what fun!

I agree with Ridge Runner. I your boat is floating above the trailer in the stern by a foot or so, the bow eye is going to be at a lower angle.
