[QUOTE="FuzzyGrub, post: 489200, member: 3438"] From what I saw of pictures of his boat, call it more a semi-V. A V bow to a modified V transom. With that style boat, I think it would be unlikely to have good hull contact for 8' bunks. The only downside to longer bunks and more hull contact, is sliding the boat off at shallow ramps. Some glides can help if that is an issue. I'd want a keel roller at the back to help align and prevent the bow from hitting the cross support. Also one in the front for support and alignment, so the winch roller is not taking all the front load. [/QUOTE]
