Rear Boat Roller Setup for Plate Boat
Posted: Tue Jan 10, 2017 9:12 pm
Hi Guys
I am looking for some advice on setting up the rear roller configuration on my trailer for a 4.6m Cairns Custom Craft Super Punt that I recently purchased 2nd Hand back in QLD. The trailer is setup with keel rollers and some skid supports for the hull, but at the stern end is tilting double roller setup with a normal cotton reel roller and a self aligning roller. Given that I want to be able to drive the boat onto the trailer easily, I am unsure on how to set this configuration height wise. The trailer was poorly setup from the previous owner I have already spent considerable time fitting new keel rollers and spindles.
I have driven the boat onto the trailer in the past few times but at times it has been slightly difficult. I have attached a few photos for reference showing the way this rear tilting roller was setup from the previous owner.
Cheers
