Recommended Replacement Flat Bow Roller for a 2014 Mako Skiff
Updated 01/19/2026 | Published 08/03/2024 >
Question:
I have a 2014 Mako Skiff. The bow is almost flat side to side. The device that Bass pro supplies is a round roller. Over time it has caused spider web cracking. Dose anyone make a flatter, or something different? Thanks

Mike, it sounds like you're looking for the CE Smith Bow Roller for Skiff Boat Trailers # CE29791. This is a flat bow roller that is made from PVC, and supports the bow end of your skiff without getting caught on the boat's lip.

Hey Mike, how did the flat CE Smith bow roller work out on your Mako Skiff? Did it help stop the spider web cracking you were seeing around the bow? Your update could make it easier for others with similar skiffs.
