I have a 1991 16' 9" Tuffy Stinger and a similar year K-Dee EZ Launcher trailer. From time to time, depending on if the launch is too steep, I have had a lot of issues with the bow not going above the top roller when I am loading. I could get it up there if I power load, but that is not always an option at some landings due to landing regs and motor restrictions. I just got this boat late last fall, and have never had a trailer with a bow double roller before and looking like the guy who has never loaded a boat before at the launch when it is busy is never fun.

Does anyone have any tips or guidance on how to load the boat to fix/avoid this issue?

Thanks
