Well here I removed all the previous bunk wood and replaced it with new carpeted bunks hand made by me using treated wood and carpet from Lowes Home Improvement (VERY INEXPENSIVE) !!
Notice previously the trailer had just bare wood (UNCARPETED) on it....I think it now looks MUCH BETTER with the new exterior carpet from Lowes ($3.12 a square FT) !

Is the way the your boat sits on the trailer,okay?
The eye is pretty low and it seems that the roller is under the hull.
I don't have a square bow boat but I think some people use a 2x4 covered in carpet as a stop, tramsom straps for sure.
Nice prep work on the boat and maybe Im way off base on the trailer.

Well didn't have much time today...but at least I worked on the trailer bunks and sanded then etch primed the BOTTOM of my boat.
Slowly but surely I'm getting there...still in need of a LOT of work.
