end of the trailer. The bow must be supported as well. Load the boat so it is centered
side-to-side, and straight on the supports. Rollers, if used, should only serve to guide the
boat into position while in the water and not relied upon to support the weight of the boat.
The improper use of rollers voids your warranty and could seriously damage your hull.
