Redone, Led's sounds like a good project. Would like to see pics. I noticed how your bimini top attaches to the gunwall. My side window is exactly like yours and I would need the same setup. Can you advise where you bought it? Can't find any listings on bl cobra.

Trailer is looking great! I like those center bunks.

Is that an overhead hoist for lifting your boat off the trailer? Drool...

thanks...the bunks are the old boards, i just put new hardware and outdoor carpeting from Lowes on it lol...and yes, its a 5 ton overhead remote control crane haha...thats part of what inspired the project, since i have access to storage and the crane in the hanger at work.

Great job redone. I like the white better than the dark blue. Send another pic when boat is back on.

those are the latest pics, its just about done!!! the LEDs made all the difference in the world, imo. now its more like a custom trailer look from behind, i think.
