Trailer improvements? or are they not really needed?

I haven't done that yet. It is just a plan. My options are to put a waterproof LED on each frame member down the center plus one on the bow stop as an aiming point, OR to use a long continuous strip of waterproof LED lghts . I have rear floodlights on the trailer and even those make a huge difference when loading in the dark. They light up the underwater area. Cam.

I want to see the floods you have on the trailer too @KXCam22 . I find my guidepost LED lights and then the truck lights give me a rectangle to look at for alignment and illuminates the bunks pretty good too. But I have seen plenty of trailers with LED approach and edge lighting. A centerline light would be great however, because many times I am crabbing in a crosswind, and I have to align at the last minute to get on center bunks. I know where the ends are, but that centerline would help!

This is what I did, using others' good ideas:

Bow stop weld project:

Bow stop winch project:

The winch is so easy I cringe at calling it a project. The stop welding is a bit more involved but a real winner.

Good luck whatever route you choose.

if you're looking for trailer landing lights I found these online. Kinda cool if you're coming in to the trailer in the dark.

Those are very cool. A little more than I would want to spend, but very cool.

Just ordered LED tail lights for my 2015 Shorelandr trailer...can't believe it came with incandescent bulbs! At least the side markers are LEDs.
