Oh shit. . . .In West Marine with time to kill

@0627Devildog You are right....I have the CE Smth uprights and they bend very easily. I am looking at adding a cross member support

Came in from the lake two nights ago and got a little sloppy on the line coming to the trailer. Decided, instead of backing up and retrying, I would pivot off of one of my VeVe posts. Granted I was going slow (which was part of my steering problem to begin with) but as soon as the boat hit the post I goosed the throttle and pivoted right into alignment. The VeVe held solid.

Veve Guides saved my ARSE this weekend at the SHITTY local public ramp. . . . . . When putting in at the local ramp the trailer went off a virtual cliff when the ramp ended (at an apparent break that was not repaired and could not be seen due to the murky water.) The boat was fine, as I was backing in REALLY slowly. . . .But the trailer was WAAAY to deep at that point.

The guides keep the ass end of the boat from floating out over the sides of the trailer and damaging the hull. Thank GOD I put these bad boys on as the initial mod.

Would you recommend the 45'' or the 65" for a 21 footer?

My personal preference would always be to go bigger. . . . If you decided you REALLY wanted them shorter you could trim them to any length (though I doubt you will want to).

I'd go 65....you'll be happy if you ever use a steep ramp!
