Question:
Hello- I am considering purchasing some guide posts for my 2009 Stingray 180RX. Two questions...One, what would be the best positioning for these rails middle or toward the back of the trailer, given the width of my boat which is larger in the middle. Which size posts are better for a boat of this size 60 or 75? Thanks.

Expert Reply:
Having guide-on posts at the rear of the trailer is the best place for them. This allows you to know where the trailer starts as you approach it in your boat so that you can be as best positioned as possible.
The 60 inch set part # CE27640 would be the way to go. You wouldn't need taller than that.
