Guide Your Boat Into and Out of the Water with Ease
When your boat trailer has been backed down the ramp and is partially submerged, these 60" tall guideposts that are mounted on the rear corners of the frame will stick out of the water, giving you 2 highly visible targets to guide your boat between for loading. The PVC pipes also provide a visual aid to help you back your boat trailer down the ramp when you're unloading and loading your boat.
Installation
The posts are simple to install. Slide the PVC pipes over the pre-galvanized steel support posts. Then mount the posts on the top or below the trailer frame, as close to the rear corners as possible. Adjust the posts so that the distance between each post and your boat is less than 1".
Pre-Galvanized Steel
Pre-galvanized steel parts are stamped from a sheet of steel after it has already been galvanized. The edges of 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 it's recommended that they be primed and painted.

Gary - 10/27/2018Solid product. Right out of the box you can tell this product is built to last. The metal is heavy gauge and the PVC coverings are well cut to fit. It went on perfectly and it’s not going anywhere. My only suggestion would be to add a couple self tapping screws and pre-drilled holes to secure the PVC to the uprights to prevent theft. I did this myself without a problem. 660804
These work really well. Extremely easy to install, probably 15-20 min total and all you need is a 9/16" deep-socket/ratchet. I put these on a galvanized trailer for my Yamaha boat and they look like they came on the trailer from the factory. The 5' height was perfect for the Yamaha, which sits quite high in the water. Gettting the boat onto the trailer was typically a challenge, but with these it just guided right on, first try! 561820
It fit on the trailer well, I haven't had a check to try loading the boat from the water yet. 681940
Bolted in in 30 min. PVC POLLS damaged in shipping but only cosmetic Clear instructions. (Pictures). Headed to the lake to see if my placement is going to work I'm going to add lights for my wife so night loading is better. Black polls are hard to see 283017
Mark D - 08/13/2017Product was better than I thought, easy to assemble, and it came in just days. Very pleased. 802650
Exactly what I was looking for. Easily installed, good quaility. Now protecting my trailer from damage by making sure the boat is loaded exactly correct. Thanks 796021
Simple fast install, feels very solid. Since my boat trailer has bunk boards instead of rollers, I tend to float the boat onto the trailer. Throw a little wind or current and it becomes a pain to center the boat on the trailer. This should fix it just hope I left enough room to be able to get the boat off the trailer. 795761
I received the product within few days of ordering. Packed well and ez to open. It took me about 30 minutes to install , super EZ. Overall the product looks and feels like good quality.highly recommend. 795158
Excellent quality. Built well. Works great for my 16ft Lund. Heavy winds on the lake I was great full these were in for a quick load up. Would recommend... 795065
The included mounting hardware was too narrow for the beams on my trailer, but the trailer itself had a mounting system. Of course the brackets on the trailer were too small and the bolts on the trailer were too big for new brackets. So after a little filing, it’s all mounted and looks great. I assume the product will work great when boats ramps reopen and I can get in the water. 790776
10 minute installation. Very sturdy construction. I purchased the pole pads which help keep the boat protected if you get a little sideways. Great product. 786838
Really liked these guide posts keeps boat straight loading/unloading also helps when your at a bad boat launch and it drops 6in keeps things tight makes it a breeze 772164
great service, great product 723398
Best price and great investment. Worth the money for the ease of loading the pontoon boat. 707347
Second time I used you as a vender. Didn't realize I had made previous purchase but your records reminded me. Puts a personal touch on transaction. Anyway trailer guides ordered and delivered across country in two days!!! Great service, why drive across town. 690472
great for guides but not very sturdy for a heavy boat 621778
mike - 04/13/2020Solid and sturdy once mounted. Easy installation and instructions were easy to follow. I recommend the 60” poles because you can cut them down if they’re too tall. I have a 21’ yamaha AR210. 523836
Jordan - 06/19/2019Just what my wife needed to get the boat loaded! 497880
As delivered love it 432532
Great product. Makes loading the boat is current or at steep ramps extremely easy. Helps with backing the trailer down to the ramp (makes it easy to see where it is). 394500
The U-bolts were a inch and a half too short. I had to have some made to make it work. I've got a wide boat, 9'3", and the uprights are about as far out as I'm comfortable with. Overall, not a bad deal. 382980
I am very happy with products and servi ce. 280605
