We have a King. What am I missing here? They shouldn't just "fall off". :?
Our's are pretty much spot on. They are very close to the boat and almost center it perfectly. Occasionally, it will slide to one side or the other, but by not more than a couple of inches. I ususlly look at the gaps between the hull and the inner fenders (trailer).
We do lilke Barry; I pull it out slowly and poor lilttle Meredith tries to push/pull it center. If not, I back down again, float the stern and try again. Dave, I wouldn't wanna try to move that stern; my back aches just thinking about it. :wink:
The bunks shouldn't come off, but the side load guides can get dmaged from heavy lateral forces if the boat hits them too hard. The holes the lag bolts go into become damaged, the lags fall out, board falls off.
I have seem people through bolt these, but it makes putting the carpet hard to reinstall.
