[QUOTE="earl60446, post: 419064, member: 4469"] - Bow eye above the bow roller (multiple sources say roller above eye) ***Seen discussions on this before, I think eye above roller is correct. - Bunks fall short of the transom (should be flush or extended past) ***Should be close or flush, if within a couple inches, that is ok. - Keel (actually "spool") rollers level or even lower than the back - saw another post to have the rollers set 1/8" higher than bunk so boat "settles" into rollers a little. ***1/8 inch sounds right, gives boat hull more support. - Bunks are on shorter edge of a 2x4, not the 4" edge (see picture) ***You're boat is fairly flat in back where the bunks are, not like in the drawing, so bunks are ok. Time to go fishing. :D Just saying it looks ok to me and my boat was setup the same way. Tim [/QUOTE]
