[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 451524, member: 21536"] Hi TinMan. I think I experienced a similar issue and understand why you put the 12" roller where you did. However, IMO it should not be touching the boat when the boat is fully loaded on the trailer. The only roller that should be touching the boat when fully loaded is the one under the bow (the one you flipped back). Take a look at page 126 of the "Pic of Your Boat" category. Captain Morgan has a side view pic of his boat on the trailer. While his boat is shorter than yours, in my mind that same concept should work for you. Hope this helps. As far as the bunk configuration, if it were me I still think having them on edge is easiest and will work well to support your boat. Also take a look at WV1951's thread just adjacent to this one. He has a great pic of his trailer without the boat. That same set up should work well for you. WV1951 and I might debate the need for the rear-most roller but the concept is still the same. (sorry about all the edits). [/QUOTE]
