Re: Lifting Pontoon Logs off the Bunks

I agree. The 20'er I bought last year is on rollers and it is dented at every roller and one of the leaks I have mentioned in another post is at one of the rollers bends. I plan to redo the bunk with planks this summer.

Re: Lifting Pontoon Logs off the Bunks

I have rollers on my trailer but my pontoons have a angle aluminum brace down the center ,, I havent seen any isues with the pontoons. but I also have the bunks on either side of the rollers.

I only use 2 on each side,, one in the rear as shown and one toward the front,, none in the middle. maybe that was why I didn't have an issue.

That looks like a good setup. I wish I had the triangle brace down the center of my tubes. It'd protect the bottom for sure.
