:D

We've all been there done that pomoxis and peke!... and it does get better!

I personally would change from the pvc guides to the roller or skid guide ons.

As mentioned earlier in this thread, back the trailer all the way into the water to get the bunks completely wet and then pull up so about half the length of your bunks are out of the water. The boat should not still be floating once pulled up onto the trailer, if it is... your trailer is too far into the water/deep.

Also mentioned earlier in this thread are the Glyde Slyks, they really help a lot! I put some on my trailer and don't have to back the trailer near as far into the water to get the boat onto the winch roller.
