[QUOTE="alldaysit, post: 406735, member: 16367"] I have a trailer with roller bunks and it is old. It came with the 1966 Alumacraft I purchased so it may even be the original trailer. The problem I have is loading it by myself. It's a freaking nightmare. I used to have a bass boat (Ranger 373v) that I could load easily in seconds. This little 15 ft boat sometimes takes me 15 minutes to get the thing centered on the trailer. It has the 4" roller in the center back of the trailer that is impossible to hit when in the boat in the water, to get the boat started on the trailer. My question, Can anyone give me advice on improving the trailer or should I start looking for a new one. I miss the simplicity of the bass boat where I would just drive it up the bunks hook it up to the eyes and pull it out of the water. Maybe it would be easy to add two boarded bunks to help or something. Thanks, Luke [/QUOTE]
