What can I say that hasnt been said already, but I'm guessing you probably don't mind hearing it one more time. Excellent work, beautiful rig!!

Thank you for the screen saver.
I used the close up 3/4 on shot. Great work, I would be afraid to use it. |

nice work Allen, did you think about adding rollers/wheels on the guard where the skid plates are now? I know Pete,,... it's not orignal, but very practical and with Allen's skills it well be clean

Allen, That has to be one of the best trailers I have seen. I love the decals you made.

81nautique, do you by chance have the dimensions for the guide poles pictured in your previous picture, or maybe even a hand sketch? It would surely be helpful... Cheers

I will get the dimensions for you but the boat is down at camp (2.5 hours away)and I won't see it for at least 2 more weeks. Trbenj - do you have easier access to one of the sets I sent you. They had the same bends as what I used on mine. |

Height dimensions would be great but getting back to my statement in the other thread, do check the beam width of the hull compared to the end result of the guide on's on the trailer. When I did some clean up work on my 77 Tique trailer, I remember taking several inches off the guide on's (the mounts were almost rusted through) to tighten up the loading of the boat onto the trailer. I always feel that when loading, tighter is better!! Correct guy's??? |

Pete, like I just mentioned in the other thread, you can make large changes in overall width of the guides (where the rub rail hits them) by making very small changes in the angle that you weld the flange on the end of the pipe.
I do agree that you want them tight... I made mine too wide for my Tique and they werent as big of a help when loading as they could have been. Both the BFN and '81SN had guides that were tight up against the rub rail on both sides once loaded. |
