Expert Reply:
The best way to help with loading your boat off and on the trailer at night would be with a set of lighted boat guide-ons like the CE Smith Post-Style Guide-Ons with LED Lights for Boat Trailers part # CE27760. These guide-ons will provide visual targets to center the boat during loading.
They are 60" tall but can be trimmed and will fit pretty much any boat trailer with frame rails up to 3" wide x 4-1/4" tall. If your frame rail exceeds this measurement then you can use part # CE11416 which accepts frame rails up to 3" wide x 5-1/4" tall. The guide-ons have built-in lights atop the posts which will be perfect for you. They wire into the trailer's existing tail lights.
I have attached a review video of them for you as well.
