1979 Montauk Had Magic tilt and now Continental trailer, set up same way. 8' X 6" bunks placed between outer pockets (inside the chine as you mentioned) facing inward. No rollers. Used petroleum jelly (Vaseline) on carpeted bunks to slide boat on and off real easy. Put winch stand at waters edge and no matter what the tide, have no problems using this method. Can launch and retrieve by myself.
Others swear by rollers also, but I have not had a problem using this method and I have owned the boat since 1979.
