[QUOTE="reedjj, post: 191118, member: 4585"] The winch on the tounge is as far fwd as it can go without adding some length by welding some new material to the trailer. I went out and measured the over hang. The boat is 19 inches past the bunks. That is a little more than I would like it to be, but I am confident the way the Alumacraft is constructed with the design of the rear deck and all the supports it has that it will be fine. But....... I will be replacing the bunks with longer ones as soon as I have the opportunity. I'm gonna run them out to about 2 inches from the end of the boat. I am going to be adding pods to the transom soon, and I dont want them on the bunks. I don't know if its true or not but I heard they are supposed to hang off. [/QUOTE]
