This video is a must see for anyone who trailers a boat in a salt water environment. My 10 year old Yamaha Shoreland'r combo had serious issues!

Those things were about to fall off!! Glad it all worked out!

Nothing beats shiny new hardware! Trailers are so neglected, as most people can see them falling apart parked at the ramp. Hopefully you’ll convince more people to inspect their trailers regularly!

Hey Capt, Nice work on the trailer video! That's a clean hull you keep. I'm installing the hull shield system to protect my hull since. I float my Yamaha boat full time in slip.

Great video once again. I did my leaf springs last year on my trailer, they were in really bad shape just like yours were in your leaf spring video. I think I am going to replace the bunk hardware on my trailer next, just as you did here. I honestly think I can get another few seasons out of them, but I'd rather be safe than sorry...

Did the kit you bought come with everything you needed to do the job? Looking at the photo of the kit on their website, I don't see the piece that mounts to the bunk as part of that kit. Did you have to buy that separately?

Yes sir, I believe I had to purchase the bracket that mounts to the bunk separately. Not too expensive.

I think you should have used locknuts on brackets ... & pivot bolt
@CaptainLeonsBoatingandMore2 ай бұрын
Thanks Jay. The bolts on the brackets did come with lock washers and the nuts on the pivot bolts did come with locknuts. It's not going anywhere, especially as the rust sets in.

@@CaptainLeonsBoatingandMore you inspired me to do my engine anodes BTW..twin engine lol .. I used some barnicle buster on rag let soak and started engines with anode out water pours not shoot out nicely and rinses all debris out into bilge area . I am now considering flushing with this stuff although it's very expensive as a once year treatment..check it out barnicle buster it's called recommended by someone at marina ..they flush outboards with it in a pool troff for 1 hr and solution turns nasty..it's mild acid claims to disolve lime , scale and corrosion . My plan is to pump in as would rv antifreeze let sit soak for 12 hours as we cannot do it like outboard guys can .

@@jayd1008 You're right it is expensive, sure it won't damage the thermostat or anything by letting it sit so long?
