[QUOTE="Ranchero50, post: 328306, member: 1523"] Non tilt trailers require the bow to ride over a keel roller on the rear frame cross member putting all the load on that cross member. A tilt deck will rotate as needed to balance out the load as it goes on and off of the trailer. It'll also kinda let you load a boat that's barely floating easier than having to lift the front all the way up to the last cross member. To me it's just another area on the trailer that is weaker than it needs to be. If the OP is going to be running off road with it, I expect the pivot and latch to wear pretty fast. [/QUOTE]
