PT 185 loading

[Lamar Gilbert]

I just read on another forum a gent was having problems centering his new PT185 on the trailer. I had the same problem when I got my new 2002 PT185. I found a very simple solution. I simply removed the side bunks.....put 1 1/2" spacers behind them and WALA..problem solved. They force the boat to stay centered. I think a full two inches of spacers would not be too much.

A lot of it has to do how far the trailer is lowered into the water....I leave mine a little shallow and let it center itself.
