And reading articles and post on this site and others, I get nervous about not having rollers to support the keel of my boat. 1967 Nautauk. I travel about 6 hours twice a year to the beach, but other that that it is only a short drive to the lake. The boat rides great on the trailer, I have never had any problems. Thanks Beantown

Some recommending a keel roller on the rear to help load but if the boat launches and retrieves without problems, why mess with a good thing? 1992 Outrage 17 I 2019 E-TEC 90, Viper 17 2+ 2018 Load Rite Elite 18280096VT
