Question:
Hello: I have two questions regarding the C. E. Smith trailer for Boats and PWCs, model 48810. 1 Is the winch / bow stop adjustable? Can it be moved forward/backward and is the height/angle of the bow stop adjustable? 2 Can the bunks be removed and then added back on to a cross-bar assembly such that with long cross bars I have a set of very long Thule cross bars I could carry both a small boat on the bunks and 1 or 2 kayaks on the remaining space on the cross bars? If so, could you please identify the cross bar assembly kit needed for this? Thank you

The CE Smith Boat Trailer for Boats and PWCs up to 12' Long - 800 lbs # CE48810 will allow the winch stand with the winch and bow stop to be adjusted front to back to allow for proper fit and tongue weight. I've attached the installation instructions to assist as well as a video.
The bunk boards can be removed if desired and you can use the Malone Crossbar Conversion Kit for Standard Utility Trailer # MPG475 to give you crossbars.
