GREAT looking boat! Congrats!

I would definitely add some more bunks to the front of that trailer before you ever try to load it at a ramp.
Also, you could upgrade to EoH brakes on the trailer, which will give you braking in reverse, and when you are backing down a ramp. This is one of my favorite features of EoH brakes. When it comes to trailer boating, there is NOTHING scarier than your boat dragging you backwards down the ramp with your front brakes locked up.

FF......Looking at the picture you posted of what a typical 80's mistress dash should look like ........mine (like you mentioned earlier) had to be customized because even the throttles are in diferent places

I installed electric brakes on 2 of the 3 axles........Just before I left for home we test towed the boat & trailer with a new denali diesel pickup. He was able to regulate braking from the cab ...you could feel the trailer braking
very hard just by setting a dial in the cab.......or to any degree of braking if he choose.......... could not even feel the big weight behind us. That truck was an equal match for the weight of a steel trailer & 35' Mistress
