Making boat trailer guides

wrote: I have a 21 foot, very HEAVY, 21 year old old 20 foot boat Celebrity 210. I often go boating on a local river and retrieving the boat is a HUGE PAIN due to strong cross current. I bought some PVC Fulton guides, which were a total pain and completely worthless. I would like to make my own boat guides, preferably from regular water pipe (say 2" pipe). I can make them from straight sections, that would have to attach to the 2x4" rectangular galvanized frame, and slope at the rate of 1/3, that is: for 38 inches of rise, they would have to move away from the bottom by about 12 inches. It should be relatively straightforward, except that I am not sure how to attach the pipe to the frame with a 30 degree angle. I do not have access to a welding machine. Ubolts? |
