Default Does your boat rest on.........................

I believe the keel rollers are just to prevent your boat from hitting
the trailer while loading and to assist with the loading. It is ok for
boats to be supported 100% by the bunks and bunks provide better
support than rollers. For best support make sure your boat is
positioned so that the edge of the transom is at the end of the bunks.
It is better not to have your transom hanging off the end of the bunks.

Mine is 100% on the 4 bunks and I may have to make some changes.

However, I only trailer when on vacation and during the off season.



Thank you for clearing this up James. I was concerned as none of the keel
is supported by the keel rollers on the trailer.
