Your product looks like a good deal, but I have a couple of questions for you.
1. Your website says that the boards have a gripping surface to hold the boat in place, which becomes a non-factor when they get wet. What if you are trying to launch in a low water area, and end up having to slide an aluminum boat off the trailer because you can't get the trailer out deep enough? Will this gripping surface wreck the bottom of the boat? Or will it make it impossible to unload in this type of a setup? The reason I ask is because last year I ran into this type of condition several times where I had to tilt the trailer and slide my boat off because of low water conditions.
2. How many feet do you think is sufficient for a 14' Starcraft deep v fishing boat? My bunks right now are 4'. Would 3' be too short? Please advise. Thanks.
