[QUOTE="cva34, post: 295976, member: 9936"] Thats a good ? My thinking is 3 1/2 and if there prone to bowing caused by, too long a span I either add a bracket in Mid area .If thats not possible Run 2 side by side on edge that gets you up to 3 " and lotsa strength .But if height is problem run 3 1/2 with a 2x4 on edge under between both brackets forming a T to stiffen ..I like to stay with that wide 3 or 3 1/2 because it fits pretty close between the V drains/ runners or whatever there called .And can keep boat from slideing 3 or 4" from side to side if its not tied down good .And helps keep boat centered when loadind.. my 2c cva34 [/QUOTE]
