[QUOTE="Scott Mac, post: 301760, member: 10360"] Smelled a skunk this morning on the way to work a sure sign that spring is near. I spent a few hours this weekend pounding out the rehab of the trailer. Paint, bunks w/UHMWP skid surface, winch and assembly. I used 3/16 thick UHMWP attached to heavily spar coated 2 x 4's. I used epoxy and countersunk SS flat head screws. The bunks and rollers still need to be adjusted but it turned out good. A support will be needed near the front to keep the keel off the steel. I my use some more of the UHMWP rather than a roller. My intention is to keep the boat as low as possible to accommodate the low water levels. It was a struggle with my previous 12' boat; the docks were almost useless around here. I will need to attach a transom saver to get the outboard up so driveways and speed bumps are not an issue, it is better for the boat also. Side guides and lights will finish the job. Come on Spring!
