That's with a brush BTW

Here is the trailer for my cousins 16 foot boat that we are just finishing up.....it just has 2 5 1/2 foot 2x6 bunks ....they were previously 5 foot, but we wanted to extend it another 6 inches so the transom wasn't hanging off the edge which i was told was one of the causing factors for hook. Don't quote me on that....but to add 6 more inches, figured it couldn't hurt.

Cool, but i need pics of the bunk's too

So i know what im looking at. By the way does that brush marks show up in the paint? Really looks good

How's this? It belongs to Jetaholic...

I assumed you could see where the bunks mount and that would be good enough. The brush strokes are visible from about one foot away (eye from the trailer). Like I said before it all depends on how good you want it to turn out. I did mine like that because when it's on the trailer it's either in my back yard or the launch ramp so I didn't care too much about it.

The bunks looked just like that one. 

It's too dark for me to take some pics of the different set-ups that I have. What set-up is on your trailer now?

Different styles of floater bars/bow attachment points to the trailer.

This is the style that most people seem to like. This type requires a bar running down the center of the trailer. This style allows the bow of the boat to go several inches side to side on the trailer, not a good thing in my opinion. The floater bar is adjustable on the trailer which allows you to put the bow (or the stern) wherever you want it from front to back. Notice how it had to be bent to clear the bow's entry.

Same style, just a little different. The piece of wood is just holding up the end for the picture. Same "features" as the above floater bar.

This style is my personal favorite for a jet boat. The Newcastle beer bottle (courtesy marcsrollin) is there to hold up the end for the picture. The bow isn't allowed to move side to side. This style is non-adjustable.

And lastly, the family boat    This is adjustable and allows the bow (or stern) to be set wherever you want it on the trailer. This is the easiest style to use in heavy current (river) conditions. The bow is not allowed any side to side movement. A lot of people seem to consider this style to be ugly. (The bitch in the picture is my G/F's!)

The float bar on my trailer is like the second one pictured here and the problem I have is that the pin takes all the abuse when hitting rough spots in the road.  I've had to replace the pin after almost every trip because the spring hoop will get broken or the pin will be bent.
I think I'm going to build a float bar like the first on pictured that uses the bar to limit movement.

I've got to make a change!

All i need is some bar stock right?
