My small boat is a 14ft princecraft. I love the boat and use it alot. It came with a narrow princecraft trailer with bunks that the boat sat on the 2" side of the 2×4 bunk. They wedged against the keels and was very difficult to launch. I converted it to roller bunks. It loads awesome but it still does not like to roll right off the trailer. I launch it in some crappy launches. I tried to launch at a very shallow launch saturday but the boat doesnt really slide right off until it is 1/2 way off the trailer. On my way home sunday, i seen a 16ft or so older lund on a roller trailer. The rollers were big like the ones you see on most standard roller trailers but they were in a long row. The trailer was white and might have been a.shorelandr. These are not those standard ones you can buy at a store. I have a pair of those on my trailer. I was wondering if anyone has seen a trailer like that and knows if that style roller system is available for purchase.

I was looking at roller trailers but they seem too narrow for my boat which is 73" wide and fender to fender outside isnt as wide.
