1989 (?) Glasstream 172 cutlass
Mercruizer Alpha 1 3/0 w/Alpha 1 outdrive
I bought the boat last year with a shoreline trailer (not sure if it was the original trailer or not)
It has 4 sets of rollers mounted on pivoting tube steel (total of 8 rollers) in the back where all of the weight is.
And 2 sets in the front (total of 4 front rollers).
I see lots of trailers with the boards (2x4 / 2x6 or whatever)
Somehow I feel like there is too much weight on the rollers (over time...boat stays on the trailer in the back yard more than it is in the water).
Should I replace the rollers with boards...and how do I do it.
