Question Bow Stop for Catamaran Trlr - Where can you get these???

Looking for a bow stop for my trailer with a 32' Skater. I have modified a Vee bottom trailer to fit the hull, but now can't seem to locate a bow stop for my application. Can anybody help me? Is there a website anywhere for these?
e-mail me or post.
Thanks,

I guess you could make one but I successfully used a nylon strap with a snap hook, Works well and can not hurt the boat. A 3'' ratchet strap works well. When loading the boat drive it on to the bunks hook up the strap and pull forward untill the strap is tight.

Thanks, but the bowstop also provides support to the hull as well to keep it from turning into a rocking chair on the trailer. Any one else??

I'm thinking you may have to have one welded up. Mine was two verticle pieces of angle with carpeted wood stops. Angled forward was more steel for support that also formed a stairway. Nice for launching, cleaning, etc.

The trailer for my Spectre was made by Owens and Sons. Nice stuff and nice people, they must be near you. Try information, Jay at Spectre or let me know and I will get the number from my office

When you talk with Owens, ask them about their steps. I just installed them and they look and work great.
