Re: bunk vs. roller trailers
I DON’T KNOW ABOUT THE PROBLEMS YOU MIGHT HAVE UP NORTH WITH YOUR TIDES AND HOW FAR YOU CAN BACK YOUR TRAILER INTO THE WATER. I USE A BUNK TRAILER DOWN HERE I JUST SUBMERGE MY TRAILER DOWN TO THE CENTER OF THE WHEEL FENDERS AND DRIVE IT RIGHT ONTO THE TRAILER. I USUALLY GET WITH IN 3’ OF THE WINCH THAT WAY. THEN I HAVE MY BROTHER ATTACH THE WINCH TO THE I BOLT AND PUT THE MOTOR IN GEAR WHILE HE CRANKS THE REST OF THE BOAT ONTO THE TRAILER. HE USES ONLY ONE ARM NO BIG DEAL TO CRANK I DO MOST OF THE WORK WITH THE ENGINE. BEEN DOING THAT METHOD FOR 15 YEARS DOWN HERE AND WORKS EVERY TIME. I WASH THE TRAILER WITH FRESH WATER WHEN I GET HOME AND SPRAY THE BRAKES WITH WB-40.
