Re: Keel guard
The install instructions say that you should mount it about 9" (If I remember correctly) from the bow eye. So you should not hit the edge of it with the roller.<br /><br />They also say that the KG should not be resting on the roller when on the trailer. I found that an impossible instruction to follow without redsigning the rollers. What I did was to place the roller diffrently so that when the boat was up against the stop, not as much pressure was on the keel roller. I also made sure it rolled freely and didn't bind with weight applied. It's not perfect but after a year of launch/retrieval/ and sitting on the trailer it looks just fine..
