[QUOTE="Lost But Happy, post: 499009, member: 31806"] Here are the pics as promised... [ATTACH type="full" alt="DSC05807.JPG"]114993[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="DSC05808.JPG"]114994[/ATTACH] As it sits right now there is 4.5" of overhang. And my question from the post above... My question to the esteemed members of the board is...is there any advantage to having more bunk (and therefore more boat) hanging off of the back of the trailer to make loading/unloading on crappy and unkempt ramps easier, or should I just drill the boards with an 1.5" or so past the rear trailer cross-member? My concern is she sits quite a bit high on the trailer now (to my eye-pics to follow) and it may make it difficult to unload/load the boat. FWIW I have a newer Ram with air suspension and a 4" drop hitch from Weigh Safe. I much appreciate any insight on my bunk situation you Gents can provide. [/QUOTE]
