I have a Fastload now with 2 large beams notched out for the steps and up front some PVC tubing that I guess is suppose to help guide the boat on shaped like a V. In between the tubing is just a plastic pad that the boat rest on. I figure most of the weight is on the rear but when trailering and loading that plastic BS just doesn't sit well with me. Not to mention with steep ramps. I was gonna add 2 2X6's prob 8 feet long, it's 80" from cross beam to the cross beam that the tubing sits on. I think I have figured out what I need hardware wise just was curious if any one has some pics of them adding bunks to the front.

If I get a chance I'll add some pics of what I got on the trailer now when I get home.

Also was thinking of adding this kind of bow stop and getting rid of the traditional roller.

where did you find this bow stop? I am so tired of the roller peeling paint off the bow.

This is where I found that one. I've seen fountains have them and even black thunders.

Found this old thread too.

Source your parts here. Very easy to work with.
They have everything from cross members with V-notches to bunk supports.

Your boat will load a LOT better with them as well.
IF you add a pair of 2x6 down the keel of the boat in between the big bunks, it will load/center even better than with just the V-bunks added up front.

Thanks for the advice, never thought about that. I'm gonna start with front then add to the rear. The only other way would be poles and I don't want to f with those.
