[QUOTE="richg99, post: 409365, member: 4376"] There are many ways to skin this cat. Its up to the OP as to how to do it. If the real issue is getting the wheels wet while launching, then...in the past... I have #1 had the axle on a trailer placed on TOP of the springs. That gave me a couple of inches LOWER support for the boat. The water was closer, and I didn't have to back in so far. #2 Recently, I took my prior boat's trailer in to have the bunks turned from an upright position to flat. That lowered the boat two inches. #3 finding a steeper launch might need to be done. Sometimes driving a bit may be necessary. A combination of things might have to be done to accomplish the OP's original needs. Extending the tongue is only one potential solution. richg99 [/QUOTE]
