Tie Down Engineering PWC Adjustable Bow Stand for 2 x 3 Inch Trailer Tongues, Hot-Dip Galvanized Steel

The Tie Down Engineering PWC Adjustable Bow Stand (part number 86557) supports the bow of a personal watercraft or small boat on a trailer, positioning the hull against an amber bow roller to prevent chafing and keep the bow properly seated during transport. It is built for trailer tongues measuring 2 x 3 inches wide and is constructed from hot-dip galvanized steel, a coating process that bonds zinc to the steel for long-term corrosion resistance in wet, salt-exposed trailer environments.

The stand comes complete with an amber bow roller and all mounting hardware needed for installation, so no separate hardware purchase is required. Its adjustable design allows the bow support to be positioned to match the hull shape and loading height of the PWC or boat being trailered, helping distribute weight correctly and reduce stress on the winch strap during towing and storage.
