[QUOTE="BayouCajun, post: 333702, member: 12977"] then you are down in my old neck of the woods, used to fish out of Shell Beach and Hopedale with mine most of the time. I like your flooring back by the transom. I hadn't come up with an idea for that yet, I had been using some rubber mats there. I don't have a welder, but rivets will have to do. Road signs? I need to look into this. I have been going through all the old posts on the site for a few weeks now at the tune of twenty or thirty pages a night. Road signs…in my future. Who to ask? Where? Back in La, finding a boat builder with scraps should be real easy…probably drive 10 miles in any direction from anywhere. Also, got an idea from your trailer pic. Interesting story, and very Louisiana, real Louisiana. But, back to the idea….the side mounted bunk support brackets… I have never been able to drive on my boat, with the result of having it land on the right bunks, when I was healthier I used to use my back and lift one side and push it center after I had it pulled out of the water. Or many times when I would launch where there was a lift….didn't have to worry about it. I need to make some brackets that I can bolt on that will keep my side bunks from bending when I drive boat on trailer. I think I can duplicate what you have with nuts and bolts. thanks for posting the pictures. [/QUOTE]
