Great DIY! I am planning on taking the plunge with an AP 120 this year. I have converted my utility trailer and added carpeted bunk boards as well. I was hoping to see a video of this. I always see the PVC pipes mounted instead. Do you like the bunks? Do they fit in the hull grooves ok and ride ok? If you don’t mind, how far apart are the boards (inside to inside)? Ive been wanting to adjust mine somewhat close to the right adjustment before I go pick it up. Appreciate any info or advice! Thanks!

Thanks for the kind words, the bunks on mine fit pretty good but the bottom of the Autopilot is one crazy looking hull. Mine are about 6” apart . I would take a wrench with me so you can adjust them as needed. I do like the way it slides right on and off. Thinking about adding a wench to pull them in…. Thanks for watching
