Boat Guide On Bunk Issues
Underneath, two pairs I do back it in to about there, and till the front tip of the bottom bunks are just poking out of the water, its still just a SOB to load, at least for me, haha, and its always windy here, so regardless some guide on's would be nice.

Boat Guide On Bunk Issues
Hey guys of BR, whats going on today?! I need some help from you guys, and if you own a nitro or a boat with my similar trailer issue, even better! I recently got a 2011 Nitro Z6. Love it, the only thing I dislike is loading the boat on the trailer, It can be a little difficult by myself, so I ran up to Cabelas and picked up some guide on bunks. Great, right?! I have a small issue I didn't realize until I got home though. Behind and in front of the trailer wheel well, there are step-up side plates, which add about 8 inches to the trailer frame itself, making it about 10" wide instead of 2" wide, I cant install the guide on bunks with these in the way, and cant take them off seeing as how the trailer lights are integrated into them. I guess my question is, can I install the guide on's further up towards the front of the trailer? Never really seen that done before, they are always installed on the back, so it seems. Plus I'm not sure if it would work, seeing as how the frame of the trailer starts angling/curving into a V back towards the tongue/hitch. Ill upload some pictures so you can get a better idea of what I'm dealing with. Ill also include a link (is that allowed? Idk :0) to the bunks I purchased. Thanks in advance for any help guys! -Guide on bunks purchased- http://www.cabelas.com/product/boating/boating-trailer-accessories/guide-ons-bunks|/pc/104794380/c/104781780/sc/104366880/cabela-s-low-profile-bunk-guide-ons/700557.uts?destination=%2Fcatalog%2Fbrowse%2Fguide-ons-bunks%2F_%2FN-1100650%2FNs-CATEGORY_SEQ_104366880

A swing away tongue is a must lol, both of which these boats do have with the trailer. Weve looked at many boats so far, and Im thinking it may come down to one of these two. An 18ftr may be possible but it would just be a VERY tight fit if at all. I measured my garage but have forgotten exactly how deep it is. I like the triton more I think, but Im just curious what some other may have to say of the two!

18 foot isn't an option after storage with the trailer is all said and done I literally just don't have room for it. I need to stick with 17 to 17.5 I probably could have an 18 footer under the right conditions maybe..but I think I'd be fine with a 17', 17.5'

How's it going guys! Here's the deal me and my dad have been shoppin around for a boat. I need some advice and opinions on these two here, they both look really clean. I've just heard and read so many bad things about nitros, then again people will always find something to complain about. I'd just like to hear what you guys may have to say about these two, thanks! I feel like that's a steal on the nitro though. I don't think I'd pay that much for that triton, gonna work on him lol. Nitro has a pro xs optimax 115, triton has the 115 optimax 2011 triton 17 explorer http://stcharlesboat...-Series-17.aspx http://kansascity.cr...5128806572.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2011 nitro z6 http://stlouis.craig...5169643717.html
