Default Re: Trailer set-up for 20'

In my opinion your bow stop is mounted too low. Moving it up about 6-7 inches would allow the boat to sit farther back off the bunks and clear the scuppers. You may find it hard to get holes drilled in the bunks to line up with the scuppers every time load the boat. The newer trailers all come with an adjustable winch/roller arm allowing you to move it up or down. Maybe you could torch off that old winch arm assembly and get one that's adjustable...or just mount it higher. I personally like the trailer bow stop slightly above the bow eye on the boat. I also moved my bow eye up about 6 inches from the factory installed location on the boat.
