Boat launch

[ncwest39]

Hey Guys<br />I have a trailer that has bunks and rollers and it all needs to be replaced.I have found a composite bunk board which I plan on using.My question is should I replace the rollers or just add a few more bunk boards.The boat is 22ft and weights about 3800lbs.I have never launched the boat as I purchased it late last year.It is a large boat and want to launch it as easy as possible.Any advice is helpful,Thanks

Re: Boat launch

I would think that just bunks would be fine if you plan on loading with a float on, float off method.

Re: Boat launch

If the Launches You'll be using are Deep Water launches, <br />More Bunks are Better......<br />But, If the Launches You'll be using are Closer to Level,<br />Rollers are the Only Way to Go.....<br /><br />You Don't want to Power On...<br />It Digs Scour Holes in the launch.....

Re: Boat launch

Thanks for the info,The bunk boards i want to use are made of polyethelene and look pretty good, Has anyone ever used this type and are they worth the expense.
