How to Gauge Height of Guide-Ons for Boat Trailer
Updated 10/10/2017 | Published 10/09/2017
Question:
How far above the boat should the guide ons extend.? I have a Boston Whaler anniversary edition and am trying to determine the correct height . Thanks

Expert Reply:
When installing guide-ons on your boat trailer, like part # CE27636, you want to make sure that they extend high enough that they are easily visible when you are loading your boat. If you feel comfortable loading your boat with the guide-ons being barely visible, then you will not need ones that are very tall.
The CE Smith Post-Style Guide-Ons # CE27636 that I referenced are 75 inches tall.
