Trailer for a 74' 20SF?
 
I'm looking to buy a trailer for my 20sf. Any recommendations as to roller or bunk style?

Thanks,
John

If you use a really steep ramp, roller style. For all else, bunk style.

I love my float-on bunk style - loading and unloading is the easiest in my life

I have a Fast Load but its made in Fl and not sure of the dealer networks from FL builders in general

I also love my tandem axle bunk (mine is also a 74' 20 :cool: ). Loading and unload is a cake walk. No brand though as it was a custom job, at least there are no manufacturing plates, numbers, or marks of any kind on it so I registered it in Va as a homemade (was a headache to get a VIN for it so I could title it).

I'd go bunk. Make sure you get a set of forward bunks or you'll have a big scratch on that sharp V.

Another vote for bunk, especially with the forward bunks. I can hit the trailer almost sideways and the boat will self-straighten every time. (Although the goal is to not hit it sideways... ;))

Same here - even in a current, if the bunks are properly aligned on the trailer, the boat simply drops in along the chine steps and comes right up. Guide poles also help.

+1 for forward bunks and guide post tandem axle. the two axles have saved me 2 times already.
