Another stupid question - I picked up my trailer today from the dealer and when I got it home I noticed both front bunks tilted If I pushed on them. I am assuming this has to be the way the trailer is designed but I can't understand why they would need to tilt.
 
To keep it from breaking the bunks. In rough waters, the bunks will adjust to the boat while you pull on. Keeps the big heavy boat from damaging the bunks.
 
Ok thanks, was looking the trailer over and noticed the bunks moved and have not had a trailer that did this. Thanks again.
 
No worries. Not much to worry about. They are designed that way for the best! Happy boating! :thumbsup:
