[QUOTE="thill, post: 500987, member: 4972"] That kind of trailer is pretty light-duty, but if you could easily lift the boat off to put on dollies, it should be fine for a boat that light. When I'm in your situation, I will generally adjust the bunk support brackets so that when the trailer is level, the boat will be sitting slightly bow-up. It depends on the brackets that trailer uses. I don't like to use a keel roller to accomplish this, as it can cause undue stress on a single point in the hull. I hope you can get it right. [/QUOTE]
