Is it normal to have your trailer rails some what loose or they should be tight and not move? I notice there was alittle play back in forth while I had the boat off. Wasnt sure if you needed some play with them so your boat dont break the rails when loading it back on if they were tight etc?

Mine have a little play in them, not where the flop sideways but just a little wiggle. I feel its better for me since i power on and off

So is it a preference I assume? If I dont power mine off and on and use the winch to take on and off should I tighten them all the way so they don't move?

The trailer for my waverunners has the bunks tight. So i am not sure what would be better.
All my other boats had stationary bunks. So tightening them wont hurt
