[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 486506, member: 21536"] I would not have any part of that keel resting on any roller when the boat is fully loaded. Doing that will likely result in bending the keel. Moving the front roller to that more substantial looking part of the bow (your ? and arrow) seems like a good idea to me. I don't think you want the weight of the boat hanging from the bow eye. I agree with JL8Jeff's comments about using position #2. Whatever you end up doing lengthwise, make sure the bunks extend back enough so that the transom is fully supported. This is pretty important and your current bunks don't do that. Extending them back 1/2" to 1" behind your transom is good. [/QUOTE]
