WTB: Non-roller boat trailer
 

Anyone have a lead on a bunk style boat trailer for a 17ft boat? My current trailer doesn't allow the boat to be far enough forward and causes it to tow like crap with the weight of the motor being so far behind the axle.

I am very limited on adjustment with it as well. Not to mention I don't like the roller style anyhow.

Let me know.

Just back the boat on the trailer.

LMAO. I guess I could stack some tires on Zac's car trailer and use that.


Guess I should call this guy and take a look. I could probably scrap my current trailer make up some of the cost.

We could cut the spring perches off and weld them further back on the trailer? Also there is a good selection at the boat ramp any given sunday.... I kid.

Cant you just adjust the axle position?

LOL! That could work. I would also like to install bunks if I were to do that. I will take a look at the one I found on CL later this week and discuss some options with you at lunch Friday.

Nope. Not far enough.

Just trade the guy his boat back. Lol.

Isnt a non-rolling boat trailer just called metal?

The rollers are not adjustable and you can see the boat is right at the end of them. The car with the rollers is not forward adjustable either. This picture doesn't really show how far behind the motor is, but it tows like shit.

If you do put bunks on it (which is super easy to do), use these.

just strap 200 lbs to the front of the trailer. or try dropping the hitch lower

or get a real truck.

I have one for sell!

I have a huge drop on it already. No sense in adding weight either. I can pick up the front of the trailer with two fingers.

Shut up Rob. Don't pick on me because your friends with Joe!

Fixed.

Call me, Matt.

I think you better stick with Larry. You dont have the facial hair to be a Matt.

ZING!

THIS.... I think adding some tongue weight will help.

Get off the computer and go to the nursery. You've got dirty diapers to change.

Will do at lunch tomorrow. Thanks man.

Do it now bitch

Would moving the winch stand forward not work? Can't really see the pics too well to see the setup of the rollers.

It's late for the older crowd... And Larry always tells me he's older now. Lol

Nope. The pad is on the edge of the last roller and the rollers are non adjustable.

Lower the truck!

That's still not going to help with the upward force on the ball...

Yep you're right. Time to give the guy his boat back. LOL!

Lmfao. Gtfo!

Now you're calling me old? I have an empty nest at home this week and was going to offer to help fix your trailer problems, but Crazy D's is calling my name tomorrow. I can't even get ShawnBooby to return my calls. Ya'll must hate old(er) people. I'll just make another drink. :cheers

Let's just say seasoned! I will be on break around 10, but don't want to disturb you.

Shawnboy is a hard guy to get a hold of. I had to use messenger pigeons and horseback to contact him once.

Sorry Larry. Im a Sweet Old Bob. I'll give you a shout.

I won't be sleeping.

:bigthumb: Kenny Mac said you need to show up tomorrow at D's so he can meet the infamous ShawnBoy . Call to discuss.
