I happen to like the Rolls as well... lets do a group deal...

how far does the tongue extend past the tip of the bow of the boat? I have an issus with my driveway length. And do the bunks extend just past and completely the transom?

Re: Trailers
 

Hey Gary -
I'll have to go measure the distance from bow eye roller to ball hitch, I'll go by there today and take the measurement.

Yes, the bunks support the entire transom, see below (ok - and also note the temp duct tape mod for our trip home, before I was able to get the steps done!)

The bunks (6"x6") are made from the CENTER core of Florida cypress trees and thus give tremendous support and flex - they are estimated to have a 40 to 50 year life, but no one has worn one out yet......

BTW, I upgraded to all LED lights and 15" wheels.

JC and Rolls got 95% of the measurements exact! When we got to L.I., JC and I had to move the midship bunks in one bolt hole, raise the v-berth support one hole, and adjust the pucks to set the angles on the hull. The next SB'er should have even less adjustments......

Re: Trailers
 

Sounds good Keith. The measurements overall would be helpful here to. I wonder if they make a folding tongue.

PM me or share with us what you spent. I did speak with them once and got a general # My likes are
-14in alloys (5 star). closer to the ground=easier unloading (very shallow where occasionally launch. BTW you boat sits nice and low.
-LED lights
-spare w/alloy rim... I see you ended up mounting your spare laying down I prefer it that way myself...why did you go that way?
-Stainless brakes/rotors

Re: Trailers
 

Gary, sent you PM.

I bought tandem, 15" galvenized wheels, disc brakes on one axle. Their SS hubs are hand machined works-of-art. They even machine all their SS lug nuts too. I bought a spare hub and originally had it vertically mounted, but when I 'lost' the trailerthe mount got beat up, so I simply laid it there, mounted the spare hub to the trailer frame and placed the spare over it, worked great.

Everything is bolt together, with all SS hardware. Send me your email address and I'll send you the pics of the damage - Rolls sent me the parts free of charge and I simply bolted on the new pieces and was back on the road!

Re: Trailers
 

P.S. The SB floats on, floats off - a true joy to launch, recover!

And yes, I like the low ride angles as well!

The trailer does slightly float, but they weight the axles down so with your 14" wheels it may not float at all - my 15" tires give a little more bouyancy, but it has not been an issue.

Re: Trailers
 

Ok, it's rainy here so the measurements were quick - over all length was ~35.5' (but remember that's to the end of the transom, the SB extends another ~20" or so with swim platform and K-planes).

Width, fender to fender was right at 8'

Bow eye roller to hitch ~68"
