Hey guys, just picked up a new aluminum bunk trailer for my 241 Libby. How much clearance should there be between the top of the tires and the bottom of the fender with the boat loaded? |

Is it squatting a lot? I have about 4 of my fat fingers between the fender and the tire, and its loaded completly loaded. Fuel, water, gear, etc... |

Ha! Just made a discovery...my trailer has the same GVW and is listed for a 23-24ft. Boat. Mine is 23' 8" The discovery is that the fenders are made with 2 sets of mounting holes and the second set is lower and plastic plugged. All I have to do now is remount to the second position which will raise the fenders by 2". Should now avert any clearance problems! |
