[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 469759, member: 21536"] X2 on the suggestion for an electric winch. I have the "short" side bunks like the ones shown in your pic. For the ramps I use, the side bunks are never so far in the water that the boat will float over them. Result is when I snug up the bow eye and pull the boat out it has no option but to settle nicely right where it belongs on the trailer. My previous boat had the taller post style side guides. I kind of agree maybe those would work better for you. One side benefit for me was that they stick up high enough that I always knew where the trailer was when backing down the ramp without the boat.
