Hi Islandtrader;
Looks like you will need to move your bunks over to the top of the first step. If you leave the trailer as is one day you will damage the tabs or your boat.
That is the only downfall I see in the QL system if you run over something while running or you dont deal with a trailer boat bunks or if you use a fork lift to put the boat in dry storage you could catch it and damage the boat.
What I like about them is their low profile on the transom especially if a guy wants to put a bracket on a outboard.
The wedge or what the old timers also called a shingle approach of tabbing a boat has been around for a very long time. When the old timers built a boat and ran it for the first time they would bring different diameter lengths of rope with them. They would tie each size rope down under the boat close to the transom to add a lip to the transom to determine what would be the optimum trim. Then they would go back to the shop and build a wedge / shingle to the transom based on their test results. Now 60 or more years later we have the QL system.
