I need to have the boat sit lower on a '91 ez-loader trailer. I am
faced with two problems. 1. Launching the boat at the local ramp requires the trailer and tow vehicle to enter the water a LONG way before you can launch the boat. (salt water) 2. I need to add the ability to have the boat hoisted into the water too. When launching the boat I have to back the trailer and tow vehicle are too far into the water before I am able to float the boat. (I have a similar problem when trying to load the boat.) If I did not have the same problem loading and unloading I would be inclined to add the Teflon covers to easily launch the boat, however, since I am have a similar problem loading and unloading I want to see if I can address the problem. pics of existing supports http://www.csofwa.com/boat/boat/front.jpg http://www.csofwa.com/boat/boat/rear.jpg In an effort to solve this problem I have reviewed the ez-loader web site for ideas to allow the boat sit lower on the trailer. To me, it looks like the bunks are currently supported by older style roller supports, modified to support the bunks. http://www.csofwa.com/boat/boat/trailer.jpg Using ez-loaders "short bunk mount bracket", "bunk support mounts" and finally "bunk/roller support brackets". I think I can get the boat to sit lower on the trailer. I am proposing to use the 38" bunk / roller support attached to the short bunk mount bracket at the rear of the trailer. For the forward support I would use the bunk support mounts attached to short bunk mount brackets. Has anyone else had success getting their boat to sit loawer on the trailer? Thank you ~Joe |
