I have a 16 foot aluminum single console fishing boat on a shoreland'r roller trailer. It had a pad on the middle cross member that the boat would slide on. When I repainted the trailer I replaced this pad with two eight inch rubber rollers. One in front of the member and one in back. I then adjusted the bow roller and it all loads great and trailers great. The problem is we are half way through the fishing season and my two rollers I put on are splitting in the middle. Is there a better roller I should buy or is this an adjustment issue? Also my bow roller is set up so the strap runs right underneath it and when you crank it up tight the hook on the strap is marring the roller. I cannot seem to get it adjusted any different to solve this problem. I know if I raise up the bow roller the front will come up and take some pressure off the rollers but then if I go too far the trailer clunks as the trailer flexes in the middle. Its like you need the weight of the boat on the rollers.
