Features to know about

Video Transcript for Hands-On with the Yates Bow Roller for Boat Trailers

Today we're going to review part #yr3143-4. This is a Yates bow roller for boat trailers. This roller is constructed of a heavy duty rubber compound. It is made in the USA. This roller will replace the worn out bow roller on your boat trailer it does help in loading and unloading of the boat and it does support the front of the boat as it sits on the trailer. It also helps to absorb the road shock while the boat is being towed.

I'm going to do a few measurements on this. The length of this roller is 3 inches. The diameter is also 3 inches and this roller is designed to fit on a 3 inch wide bracket that will use a half inch diameter shaft. And that should do it for part #yr3143-4.

  • Bow Roller Recommendation to Fit 4 inch Roller that is Too Long
    Looks like you have the part # YR450BLK-400BLK installed and are needing the next size down which happens to be the part # YR300BLK-325BLK. This fits the same 1/2 inch diameter shaft but is 1 inch shorter than what you have. Your bell ends being deformed would not be a good sign.

  • Parts Found In Pictures for CE Smith Bow Roller Bracket # CE31005PG
    The Fulton Single Speed Winch # F142306 appears to be the closest winch that we have to the one in the picture with the CE Smith Bow Roller Bracket for Winch Stands # CE31005PG. It has a similar mount and frame connection with the crank handle and switch in similar positions. I cannot tell you exactly what winch was used for this photo as it is a manufacturer image and likely the winch may no longer be in production. This winch has 1,800lb capacity and includes a 20' strap with 9" handle....

  • All Parts Needed To Add A Winch To A Kayak Trailer
    I included a winch that will be very comparable to what comes on the CE Smith Multi Sport Plus Boat and Kayak Trailer # CE48870, but we do not have that exact model. I should also mention that there is no hardware included in this list, but everything else is.

  • Replacement Keel Roller Brackets for a Tee Nee Boat Trailer with 3 Inch Rollers
    The 3 inch rubber bow roller, # YR3143-4, that you referenced is typically used at the front of the boat near the winch. The rollers that are usually used in the middle and rear are keel rollers. Often times, the v shape of the 3 inch bow roller is too deep for the middle or rear end of a boat hull. I did some research on your Tee Nee trailer and it looks like there are a few different styles that will affect the type of brackets that you will use. If you have frame rails that run perpendicular...

  • Shaft Recommendation for a 3 Inch Bow Roller for Boat Trailers # YR3143-4
    The 3 inch bow roller # YR3143-4 takes a 1/2 inch diameter shaft such as # CE10700A. The Pal nuts are included. The length of this shaft is 5-1/4 inches long so you may need to trim it down a little. The cut will need to be straight and smooth so the Pal nuts will still fit on the ends. If a bracket is needed as well we have numerous options. I have included a link to them for you.

  • Replacement Option for 3-1/2" Rubber Bow Roller
    The closest thing we have to a 3-1/2" long bow roller is the # YR450BLK. This is 3-3/4" long x 3-1/4" diameter and made of thermal-plasticized rubber. If you don't want the thermal-plasticized rubber we have the # YR4174-4 which measures 3-7/8" long x 3-1/2" diameter. Both of these are made for a 4" wide bracket with a 1/2" diameter shaft.

  • How to Determine the Correct Bow Roller Needed For a 1999 Tidewater Boat Trailer
    To select the correct Bow Roller or Bow Guard, see links, for your Tidewater boat trailer, you will need to measure to determine the proper size. The width of the roller and diameter of the shaft that the roller installs on will be needed. Most boats that use a roller use the 3 inch Rubber Bow Roller, # YR3143-4, that you referenced, at the point closest to the trailer winch. This roller accepts a 1/2 inch diameter shaft.
