Hey John, try that again. Somehow the url didn't show up.
I suspect that currently my tongue weight is plenty if not too much but
it would be interesting to see the recommendations.

BTW, the main trailer guide on my trailer is with the bunks. The
rollers don't do much except keep the hull from scraping the trailer
frame.

That's the whole problem, when the boat gets forward there's nothing to
keep it going straight.

My tongue weight for my trailer should be 6-8% of the load. For me, that came to
about 400 lbs.
