Keep your small boat centered during the loading process, despite wind and waves, with these bunk-board-style guide-ons. Corrosion-resistant guides are covered with marine-grade carpet and fit trailer frames up to 3" wide x 4-1/4" tall.
Features:
Specs:
Adjustable boat guides can be fine-tuned to work with your boat and your trailer. The pre-galvanized steel support posts mount horizontally on top of or below your trailer's frame rail. Just slide the posts into the boat guide supports and secure the posts so that the distance between the bunks correctly matches the width of your boat. The bunk boards then tilt to conform to the boat's hull. Guides will help to center your boat during loading and to hold the boat during transport.
Pre-Galvanized Steel
Pre-galvanized steel parts are stamped from a sheet of steel after it has already been galvanized. The edges of the pre-galvanized parts often lose their zinc coating during the stamping process. Because of the thinness of the coating less than 1 mil and the fact that the edges remain exposed, pre-galvanized parts can begin to oxidize and rust quickly, so its recommended that they be primed and painted.

Keep your small boat centered during the loading process, despite wind and waves, with these bunk-board-style guide-ons. Corrosion-resistant guides are covered with marine-grade carpet and fit trailer frames up to 3" wide x 4-1/4" tall.I am impressed with the speed of shipment and delivery but have yet to apply to my boat trailer. Am looking forward to fixing the problem I've had with getting my boat centered on the trailer at the launch. Suggestion: sell just the brackets and save me the cost of the two-by-fours and carpet. I can do that myself at home. 347627
BenT - 03/03/2018Excellent on time service less than a week to get to my place Will put product this week and hoping I’ve selected correct one So far real good experience with trailer 556181
My Son recommended etrailer, stating the products + shipping resulted in a "No Brainer return". Well, I will confirm this statement. This was exactly what I needed for my jetboat. I ordered Sunday, and received it Friday, week of Thanksgiving. Super fast. I now have a new establishment where I will be coming back for trailer needs. This particular product, good construction, and easy install with all the applicable hardware included. I shopped around, and for the price + package, this was the best deal. Thanks etrailer....... 454681
Jacob - 11/26/2018I bought a 2007 16' Carolina Skiff for $3500 back in December. The dealer said there was nothing at all wrong with it and he went over it and winterized it. I finally got around to putting it in the water and saw that the bunk boards were in terrible shape, with one side rail guide-on falling off. I took it to a marina repair shop and was told it would be cheaper to buy a new trailer instead of replacing the bunk boards. I contacted Ashley at etrailer about buying a set of bunk boards and all of the brackets and hardware for it. $370.00 later I had a full set of bunk boards and guide-ons being shipped to me. I don't think I could find a new trailer for that price. It took longer to remove the old ones than it did to put the new ones on. About 3 hrs later I had a new trailer. These bunk boards and guide-ons fit my boat and trailer perfectly. Thank you Ashley and etrailer for great customer service and a very good product at a really decent price. 671941
The quality of the product looks good, but it is a standard trailer boat guide. It did not fit our trailer or boat. 692228
Product was an exact replacement for the one i have. This would be better for me if it was hot dipped galvanized or even better a stainless steel option. I sprayed these with spray zinc but that is not as good as hot dipped. the installation hardware was easy to use. The installation video was a good help. I'm very satisfied with the product. 675361
Easy install and looks like the will last a long time. Hoping this will solve our loading boat on trailer issues on windy days. 551462
Very happy with fitment and the speed of which I could install it. It took about an hour and 15 minutes. The side boards are in fact wood, and I recommend drilling pilot holes for the wood screws. Now for the negatives... Torque specs or the u-volts would have been appreciated for those of us that care. But most important would be the pivoting bunk mount. As seen in the photos, they are sheared off square. Rounded edges would be more appropriate as most kids around a boat are wearing clothing with little cut resistance. Someone sliding off the boat or getting their knee on it while getting in could really ruin an outing. I would have rounded them off myself, but I didn’t want to lose the galvinized finish. 540653
Ok, so my EZ Loader trailer is not so EZ to load my 15' Smokercraft. I needed something, anything to help remedy the problem. The local boat shop suggested these instead of OEM Trailer Guides. So it took about 2 hours to put together and I have suggestions for anyone who is about to install these. 1. Go get a socket that will accommodate long bolts. A socket wrench is not going to cut it and you will scrape your knuckles trying to make it work. I used a spark plug socket and attached it to my drill. This absolutely cut my time in half! 2. If you have an EZ Loader trailer that is used for smaller boats (like mine), you will have no choice but to attach the brackets under the trailer. I wanted to attach it on top, but the only way to do so is to cut 6 inches off the horizontal portion of the steel "L" bracket. The reason is because the bunk board is in the way and you will only have 5 inches to work with. So keep that in mind. I just hope the height of the boards are tall enough when the trailer is in the water. 3. Call a buddy to help out! It makes life a lot easier. All and all, this wasn't that difficult to assemble. Again, I haven't put the boat in the water yet, but I am confident this will solve my problem of loading. 160986
These were easy to install and have worked great. It has made it much easier to get the boat centered on the trailer on the first attempt. 516248
Robert - 06/02/2019Installed on the boat trailer for my 14 ft Polarkraft MV Jon boat now I can load and unload the boat with out having to wade into the water. . I do not know low long it will last in saltwater, it was pregalvanized and not fully galvanized, only time will tell . Only negative was no instructions on how far to place out guide bunks, but figured it out, 1 in on bow and 2 to 3 inches from stern of . boat can now power boat on trailer , and walk out on bow and not get feet wet. helps in loading in winds here on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Excellent service from Customer Rep . 181456
Is product went together smoothly. My son Bryce and I had no problems from start to finish. 302325
Fast shipping, heavy duty constuction, easy to install! 279213
Quick shipping, great quality. I ended up using it as a step/board to walk on while docking: loading the boat without getting my feet wet! I’ve been using it for about a year now with no problems. 688628
Make retrieving boat so much easier. Now back the trailer in deeper and boat is centered perfectly. Way less cranking on the winch, but feet get wet cause trailer is back farther. I rather take shoes off or switch to boots than crank on the winch.Speeds up load time at ramp. Only down side is I had to buy longer u bolts because my trailer sides were higher than the stock bolts could accommodate. Cost me more money, cause they ain't cheap and I'm suck with 8 u bolts that I have no use for. They should allow you specify the bolt size you need based on trailer frame height. 696896
This is one of several Reviews that I have sent in past 5 years. I highly recommend etrailer, and have always appreciated their excellent service. 826332
Product seems very solid, and installed quickly. Shipped pretty darn fast, considering the whole COVID catastrophe. You should assume that it'll take a few more days than they say, but it's not etrailer's fault. One of the two carpeted bunks was slightly warped, but it's wood after all, and it wasn't so warped that it doesn't work. Perfect for keeping our boat centered on windy days while getting it onto the trailer, as we're average shmucks that are fortunate to own a boat but not rich enough to own a cabin where the boat would live. This makes the daily in and out at the boat launch that much smoother. I'd recommend it for sure. 817632
