Tournament 205 trailer bunk setup

[codnodder]

Hello,

Owner of a 2006 Tournament 205.

Just picked up a new Loadmaster bunk trailer. The trailer builder says the trailer is set up to Grady "factory specs" for my model year. Measuring the bunks shows they are 48" apart, which lands right outside the strakes.

However, I have the Grady spec document "LCG, Bunk, and Buttock Locations" for my boat and it shows two sets of stringers, one set at 30", one set at 58", and states:

Bunk locations rest under stringer locations to support the entire boat structure – generally, as there are usually two sets of stringers per model this gives two bunk location options.

Before I start moving bunks around, does anyone here have any knowledge or experience in this area that suggest the bunks are good at 48" even though the Grady specs suggest 58"?

On a side note, if anyone is in the market, Loadmaster is a very well made trailer.

Thanks.

Chuck O'Donnell

Don't have the measurements, but I found a pic from the 205 I owned a few years ago. You can tell from here that the bunks should go just inside the outer strake.


If you are referring to the Loadmaster in Tampa, they make a decent trailer....I've owned couple of them.
