Make Your Own Boat Trailer
make your own boat trailer
From your own boat, measure the height of the eyelet on the bow post. you need to position the hook on the winch wire at about this height so you will have a reasonably straight pull when winching the boat on to the trailer. the winch post is made of 35x35mm rhs welded to a plate which is u-bolted to the drawbar.. It also simplifies a jon boat trailer building project. step 1. measure the length and width of the jon boat. add four feet to the length from the rear of the motor if it has one to the front of the bow handle. this will be the trailer's overall length. how to build your own enclosed trailer. Instead of buying pre-made nylon boat glides, i go to the local shops that make starboard (or equivalent) boat accessories and ask the for waste cuttings. the will usually sell them cheap, since a 3" wide strip will make your bunk slider, but is too narrow for almost anything else. i have found 1/2" thick pieces, 8' long and 4" wide, for under $20..
