Default Re: Bunk or roller trailer

Bunks!
Me too. Never had a roller trailer, but I've seen plenty of boats with black streaks on the hull left by rollers.

My trailer has bunks under the stringers aft to support the hull and keel bunks forward to align the boat on the trailer. I drive it on, winch it about 4" to snug it to the winch stand roller, and drive it up the ramp. Twice a year or so, I'll spray silicone lubricant on the bunks to make things slide easier. Cuts down on wear & tear on the carpet too.
