• Recommended Placement of Bunk Boards on Bayliner Capri 1950
  After completing a very thorough image search online, it appears that the most common bunk placement is about 2/3 of the way between the keel and the ridge that runs along the side of the hull. Rather than on end, most of the bunks I saw had the board meeting the hull on the flat. This disperses more of the weight of the boat along the bunk. The # CE27820 bunk boards you mentioned would be perfect. I'd also recommend using # CE10001G-4 bunk brackets and # CE15283GA-4 Galvanized u-bolts.

• Recommended U-Bolts, Rollers and Boat Trailer Lighting/Wiring for a 1984 Shoreline Trailer
  Thanks for sending us the pictures! Since you are installing a Bolster-and-swivel-bracket assembly part # CE10001G-4 and need a 4-1/8 inch width by 3-1/2 or 4-inch length U-bolt, we currently don't offer a close match.

• Determining Trailer Bunk Board Length for 14 Foot Sailboat
  It's not an exact science but typically you want the bunk boards on a trailer to extend all the way to the rear of the boat. It wouldn't hurt to have them go a bit beyond this too to ensure proper support during travel. Since the front of the boat should be supported by the bow stop you usually see bunk boards that measure about half the length of the boat itself. Since you no longer have the boards that originally came on your trailer it might also be a good idea to try and contact the...

• Do the CE Smith Bolster and Swivel Bracket Assemblies have a Weight Capacity
  I spoke with my contact at CE Smith, and they said the Bolster and Swivel Bracket Assembly for Boat Trailers, part # CE10001G-4, do not hold the weight of the watercraft themselves. The U-bolts that attach the brackets to the trailer frame are what support the weight of the watercraft. What I recommend is to find some u-bolts and hardware locally that have the proper capacity exceeding 350 pounds per u-bolt. If you did that then each one could support over 700 pounds. But the more brackets...
