CE Smith 27600 5-Foot Bunk Board Style Trailer Guide-Ons, Galvanized Steel

The CE Smith 27600 is a 5-foot bunk board style trailer guide-on system designed to help center your boat on the trailer during loading, even in wind or side-current conditions. The guide-ons use pre-galvanized steel uprights that install at a 75-degree angle and mount horizontally on either side of your trailer's frame rail, sliding into the boat guide supports for quick, tool-light installation. Each 2 x 4 x 60 inch bunk board is wrapped in high-grade marine carpet and tilts to conform to the shape of your boat's hull, helping to center and hold the boat securely while trailering.

The uprights stand 21 inches above the frame and can be adjusted out to 13 inches from the frame on each side, so the guide-ons can be set to match your boat's beam. For added stability, the guide-ons can also be mounted on top of the frame rather than alongside it. Mounting hardware is included and fits trailer frames up to 3 inches wide by 4-1/4 inches high. The steel components are stamped after galvanizing, giving them rust and corrosion resistance for long-term use in a marine environment. The CE Smith 27600 is made in the U.S.A. And ships with all mounting hardware and assembly instructions needed for installation.
