![]() Happy Boating Why would you want the bunks to flex? *The trailer has it's own suspension. *You want the hull to be fastened tight to the bunks and trailer. *If the bunks flex, the boat can move and bounce while you trailer it. *If you want to spread out the weight, use 4X6 lumber. *The boat is only 18' long so it shouldn't need that much support anyway.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - *************** I should have said curve not flex. I'm not trying to soften the ride for the boat. I'm trying to spread out the force on a larger area of the hull buy having the bunks curve to match the hull. It's all done now. I used 2x6 with the 6 in side against the hull. |
