We're also "blessed" with some
decent ramps around here, well-paved, and steep enough to make launching
and retrieval fairly easy


A point to be made is that this plastic is SO slick you'll winch your
boat on and off of them.... assuming the ramps are as steep as ours.

Another Catch-22 is that if you are considering bunks for an aluminum
boat, don't use treated lumber. The new stuff is VERY corrosive....
especially to aluminum.....


Thanks Gene. I winch mine for both launching and retrieval so they'll
be a help.
