Helpful Expert Reply:
You can add rollers to your boat trailer which will make it slide in and out much easier and more so than carpeted bunks for sure. You can use roller bunks # DL21741 and attach them directly to the bunks you have now. Be sure to get rollers for all the bunks the boat touches.
These rollers have a capacity of 3,000 pounds and are 5 feet long. I have included a link to a video review of them for you.
