When I bought my new King bunk trailer it had four bunks on it. Initialy we took two off and went with two set wide apart. I had a lot of trouble centering the boat so I switched the bunks around and replaced the two that I had taken off. I placed them to the center so that they were just wide enough apart so that the center rib on the bottom of the boat goes down the middle. it centers perfectly every time now.

Hello Tom and Marge, I believe that it was me that posted the pictures on the old site. I have been trying for two days to get some new pictures to upload on to the photo site. Finally tonight it worked. If you go to the Mary Ellen photos you will see a couple of pictures. I just took a board the same width as the carpeted trailer side guides and then screwed a couple of pieces of plywood to them and added carpet. I just slip them in placed just before hauling the Mary Ellen out and it does a good job of centering the boat. Hope this Helps, Big Mac.
