Boat Trailering Guys,


Any suggestions as to one man loading and unloading a 23' center console on and off a roller trailer when there is no dock next to the ramp?

Install trailer guide-on's to keep the boat centered on the trailer while launching. They will also greatly aid when you are loading the boat in a cross wind or current. Another addition that you will find helpful is a walk board installed along the trailer's tongue. No more balance beam act with one of these. You can use a 1x8"-10" board mounted to the tongue with u-bolts. Apply strips of non-skid tape or paint and you are ready to go.
