I bought a 2016 Rt188 at the end of July this year. I haven't had any trouble loading it but when I unload on some of the steeper ramps the bow of the boat hits the spare tire about a foot from the end. Has this happened to anybody else?

mine is older but basically the same I believe. It would load better with two people in the boat verses one. So when by myself I try to sit in the middle best I can seems to work better for me.

way to deep if tops of fender are under water. Dunk it till the front step (before the fender) is just touching the water.
If I could figure out how to post one I would.
Might have to email me before it’s over.
With Rayburn being 5’ low it would be almost impossible to load on these steep ramps without the roller guide.

I have the exact same problem ; we need to hook up
I put this together from parts I had laying around. I have only had the opportunity to try it once on a steep ramp and it helped a lot. Jury is still out but if it proves out, I will improve on the brackets and rollers and make it permanent.

I’ve been fighting a low water ramp at Trinity. The angle of the ramp is super steep. The rear side bunks are a couple of feet under the water by the time I get the trailer deep enough to get the bow to float high enough to get over the front roller by the wench. These fiberglass poles just slip in and off when needed. They will keep the back end from floating away with the hard side winds.
Same on Rayburn I put a roller on the second cross member and solved the problem
