    Best flooring options?

    Thought about that stuff myself, but only find it in black, which would be to hot in summer.

    Converting Roller trailer to bunks for my Starcraft 161

    In my opinuon, 2x6 would be plenty, if your worried add a stiffener like I mentioned previously by adding a 2x3 on edge under the 2x6. You will need carpet or other surface on bunks for the hull to slide on. A 2x8 would create to much friction as a bunk board.

    Converting Roller trailer to bunks for my Starcraft 161

    Your boat is not that heavy, so the span would not be a big concern for me. However if your concerned, add a piece if angle iron/ angle aluminum in between then add your 2x6 or other size lumber to make your bunk. I have saw many trailers with a T shaped bunk, a 2x3 on edge bolted to a 2x4, or...

    Will boat for this style trailer?

    Your boat is light weight, most weight is closer to center, being just inside looks good to me as it will help center when loading. Adding side guides will make it even easier !

    BAR 🍸 OPEN

    There are break proof glasses made of glass.....they are very thick and heavy. Our local glass maker ( Libbyy Glass) in Toledo Ohio has them. Small, about drink size, might be what you need. Very thick and robust, some years back, they advertised them by driving a car over them. I am sure they...

    This trailer has rocking bunks

    Spacers and or washers, or modifying the bushings, can be done to snug things up. Some trailer mfgrs have a stop built into the mount that limits the travel of the bunk. Without pics I can't tell.

    Spark plugs and cap replacement interval

    Here is the bottom line......are you willing to carry spare parts, can you change these parts out on the water ? Do you have a kicker motor to get you back ? How far can you paddle your boat ? Consider the afore mentioned situations, if you have no good answers, I would change everything...

    Transducer location

    Can be very tricky to figure out.....there are areas to avoid, but finding that sweet spot can be time consuming. Some hit that spot first try, then tell everyone how easy it was, while others never find that sweet spot and blame the unit. I would seriously consider a mounting plate to attach...

    This trailer has rocking bunks

    The pivoting bunks should have a stop to keep them from pivoting to far, as least all of the ones I have seen do. As the boat loads and unloads the hull shape changes as it goes over the bunks. In some cases, the sharper edge of the bunk can carry a lot of weight for a few minutes and over...

    Very popular around my area, as mentioned they need to move but not flop around.
