Hey Mike! Yes, you want to install the CE Smith V-Wing Bolster Bracket # CE26244G so it matches the center of where the pontoons will sit.

What kind of pontoon boat do you have?

@Mike very nice! You’ll still want to center the V-Wing Bolster Bracket # CE26244G with the centerline of each pontoon tube where it sits on the bunk. The key is that the “V” supports the tube evenly on both sides, so lining it up with the middle of the 23" tube gives you proper weight distribution and keeps the boat tracking straight on the trailer.
