Video Transcript for Fulton Boat Guide Review
Today we'll be taking a look at the Fulton 50" Boat Guide, part number FGB1500100. The Fulton boat guides are going to provide a visual cue when loading your boat on your trailer. They extend up out of the water so you can find your trailer the first time, every time. They're a simple clamp on installation with no drilling required, and all the hardware's included. The non-marring marine grade PVC will insure that your boat remains protected. It's adjustable within the brackets, so we can move it out or in, so it's going to fit a wide variety of boat holes. That that we've gone over the features we'll go ahead and show you how to get it installed.
Keep in mind everything we do on one side we're just going to repeat the same step on the other side. We've already got our back guide on in place. We're going to install some here at the front. The first thing we need to do is we're going to need our guide on. We're going to need our bottom plate, our top plate, and two U-bolts. We're going to take our bottom plate and we're going to install it in this fashion right here with our single holes towards the boat there.
We'll go underneath, put our top plate in this position here. We're going to go over the top with the U-bolts. Go in those first holes that we talked about before. Then we're going to go with the closest ones that we can, as you see there. Then we're going to loosely install our hardware on the bottom.
With that in position we're going to take our included hardware. It's going to be a lock washer and a nut, and we're going to need four of those to go on. We'll get each of those started. Now with that loosening saw let's go ahead and grab our PVC guide on. We're going to slip it in just like this, so it sits right on top of our trailer's frame. When you position this you just want to adjust it to the depth that you want.
We're going to put it about an inch away from our boat, and then we can tighten it the rest of the way down. Now we're using 9/16 socket wrench to get that tightened down. What you want to do is you want to alternate in between so you can a nice even fit. That's pretty secure. Last thing we need to do is turn our attention to our end cap here. We want to make sure that our end cap stays in place, so the kit comes with two screws so we can do so. We're going to drill a pilot hole on either side, and then put those in. We'll take out included screws and we'll put those in place. With both guide ons installed that's going to pretty much do it. That's going to complete our look at the Fulton 50" boat guide, part number FGB1500100.

Works great with my 19’ sailboat which I frequently launch and retrieve in strong crosswinds and currents. Holding up great. Wish i had bought them 15 years ago

PRODUCT IS VERY EASY TO INSTALL AND IS ADJUSTABLE. IT IS A VERY GOOD PRODUCT. FAST SHIPPING AS ALWAYS
by: Walt03/27/2017
Ok for the money but a bit flimsy. I would recommend spending a few $ more for the guides where the pvc pipe pushes on to a galvanized steel mount, as I expect they would be sturdier than this all pvc guide.
by: Damien D.09/13/2017
Amazing. I wasn't able to trailer my boat by myself before, and now with these attachments I don't need any help putting the boat back on the trailer
by: daveamsp07/29/2017
Installation took 2 people and a deep socket ratchet wrench, but WOW!
I've struggled for 20 years to get my boat on, with 2-3 tries each time I take it out of the water.
The first time I tried it with the guides, it slipped right into place the first time!
I'm thrilled!
by: Christopher 06/14/2021
These guys are always great! I've ordered several times from etrailer and everything has always shipped promptly, arrived on time or early and most importantly, always the right stuff!
by: JL Denis03/16/2015
Great product, was easy to install and seems sturdy, the shipping was lightning fast. Thank you.
by: Mike Byrd11/09/2012
The products I ordered came in one shipment and arrived earlier than I expected.
I will use etrailer again in the future for all my trailer needs.
Good job!
by: Dave L of Bootjack06/06/2012
I received my order in record time. I installed the guides on my boat lift and everything went perfect. My neighbor is impressed.

Prompt courteous efficient service and delivery!!! Highly recommend etrailer.com to my friends!!

seem to work satisfactorily--caps came off on first and second trip, so should have some way of securing them--not necessary for function, cosmetic!!

I am on my second set of these...They are durable enough, but when a tire blows, or you catch the side of gate, it can snap the guide off...

See what our Experts say about this Fulton Boat Trailer Parts
- Mounting Trailer Tail Lights on Fulton Boat Guide Part #FGB1500100You can certainly mount lights on the poles, however if the lights you choose pick up their ground connection through the mounting studs, you will need to run a jumper wire from one of the mounting studs on each lamp to the trailer frame to complete the ground circuit.
view full answer... - Recommended Boat Guides For 1990 Stingray V-Hull Boat On Loadmaster TrailerWith the I-beam construction of your Loadmaster trailer you can take a quick measurement to make sure the boat guides we offer will fit. The CE Smith Post-Style Guide-Ons, part # CE27636 are designed for boat trailer frames that measure up to 3-inches x 5-1/4 inches. The post height is 75 inches. For a 50-inch tall boat guide I recommend the Fulton Boat Guide, part # FGB1500100. This will fit trailer frames up to 3-inches x 5-inches.
view full answer... - Recommended Boat Guide-Ons For 24-Ft Pontoon BoatI recommend 60-inch Black guide-ons like the CE Smith, part # CE27646. I recommend going with the 60-inch because you can always cut the upright PVC to a shorter length if you wish. If you decide on 50-inch, you can check out part # FGB1500100, which is only available in White.
view full answer... - Boat Guide-Ons for a Boston Whaler Classic Montauk and Trailrite Boat TrailerNo customers have said specifically they were using CE Smith guide-ons # CE27620 for a Whaler Classic Montauk. The overall height from the top of the pipes all the way down to where the metal support arm starts to turn towards the trailer is 46-1/2 inches. There is a 50 inch tall model from Fulton, # FGB1500100. And The 60 inch one, # CE27640, could work if you trimmed some length from the PVC pipes.
view full answer... - Boat Trailer Guide-On Recommendation for Ebbtide Mystique Deck BoatBoat trailer guide-ons don't carry a weight rating, they're meant to provide a frame of reference to help guide the boat onto the trailer. A guide-on set like the CE Smith # CE27610 is made of metal, so it'll be strong, but it provides a roller to protect the boat's finish.
view full answer... - Replacement Guide Tubing for Boat TrailerThe Fulton Boat Guide - PVC Construction - 50" Tall # FGB1500100 does not have the guide tubing as a separate replacement part. You would need to purchase the entire kit. The CE Smith Guide-Ons for Boat Trailers do have the 40 inch # CE11339 and 60 inch # CE11354 available for their uprights # CE27605PG and # CE27608PG.
view full answer... - Horizontal Adjustment Range of Fulton PVC Boat Guides FGB1500100 I went to our warehouse to measure the uprights and hardware of the Fulton Boat Guides # FGB1500100 so that I could determine their adjustment range once installed. Please refer to the linked photo I prepared for you. On each of the uprights the straight horizontal portion that fits inside the mounting hardware has 11-inches of usable length and the length of the mounting brackets is 4-1/2-inches. The difference between these dimensions gives us the range of horizontal adjustment possible,...

- Will the Fulton Boat Guide # FGB1500100 Fit a TrailStar Boat TrailerThe mounting bracket that comes with the Fulton boat guides # FGB1500100 can be turned to fit the mounting needs of your trailer. While it may take some creative maneuvering I am confident it will work. You also may be able to attach the guides to the galvanized step area by drilling through it and attaching the brackets that way. I have also included a link to all of the boat guide options we carry. There may be a better option based on your trailer design.
view full answer... - How Wide is the Fulton Boat Guide For Mounting on a Pontoon Boat TrailerI pulled the Fulton Boat Guide, # FGB1500100, from the warehouse and produced a short video showing the measurements you will need, see link. From the closest part of the bowed upright to the end of the PVC tube the measurement is 15 inches. From the same spot to the inside of the closest U-Bolt the measurement is 13 inches, when mounted on a 2 inch square tube frame. Your frame size will dictate this measurement. The upright is constructed of solid PVC that I measured at just over 1/4...
view full answer... - Replacement U-Bolts for Fulton Boat Trailer Guide-OnsWe have u-bolt kit # CE11416 from CE Smith that could work for you though it is a replacement for CE Smith Guide-Ons like # CE27620 which a little different than the Fulton model. The Fulton model has top and bottom brackets whereas the CE Smith guide-ons do not so the u-bolts might not be long enough depending on the height of your frame. It would probably be better to go with replacement hardware kit # CE11452-A.
view full answer... - How to Adjust CE Smith Bunk-Style Guide-Ons for Boat Trailers # CE27600 to Keep Boat CenteredThe CE Smith Bunk-Style Guide-Ons for Boat Trailers # CE27600 can be adjusted for the best fit with a given craft. As you noted, you can adjust their side-to-side spacing to help keep your hull's strakes from contacting the center roller brackets. Also, the Bunk-Style Guide-Ons can be set at an angle, with the stern brackets a bit further apart than the bow brackets. This will create something of a V-shaped entry way for the boat that might help get and keep the keel in the roller. A set...
view full answer... - Will Fulton Boat Trailer Guide-Ons Work for a Single Axle Escort TrailerThe Fulton boat guides # FGB1500100 should work for you because there is some degree of adjustability in and out along the horizontal parts of the PVC pipes. From the closest part of the bowed upright to the end of the PVC tube the measurement is 15 inches. From the same spot to the inside of the closest U-Bolt the measurement is 13 inches, when mounted on a 2 inch square tube frame. Your frame size will dictate this measurement. Thirteen inches is fairly common. The CE Smith guide ons...

- Availability of U-Bolts that are 2 inches Wide and 4 inches LongThe u-bolts we offer with the most similar dimensions to what you need is the part # UBZC716X212X400 which is 4 inches long and has an inner width of 2-1/8 inches. Normally this is used to secure 2 inch square trailer axles. I attached a review video for this for you to check out as well.
view full answer... - How Many Fulton Boat Guides Are Included In The Package The Fulton Boat Guide # FGB1500100 comes with one boat guide for each side of the trailer. We do have customers that purchase one set for the rear of the boat and another set for the front as the attached video shows.
view full answer... - Will Fulton Boat Guide Help Center a 16 Foot Sundance Boat onto a TrailerThe Fulton boat guide # FGB1500100 will help you determine where the center of the trailer is and then you aim for the middle between the 2 guides. Otherwise it does nothing to physically center the boat. The rollers on the boat trailer, specifically the keel roller, such as # DL21728 would help to center the boat if it came onto the trailer a little off center.
view full answer... - What is the Outside Diameter of the PVC Tubes on Fulton Boat Guide # FGB1500100I spoke with my contact over at Fulton about the Fulton Boat Guide # FGB1500100. He said that the outer diameter of the PVC tubes is 2 inches. That means the CE Smith lights, # CE27656A, should fit just fine. And thanks, etrailer thinks that you're the best, too!
view full answer... - Boat Guide Recommendations for a 2000 Performance Trailer and American Sail BoatThe Fulton Boat Guide, # FGB1500100, is designed for up to 3 x 5 inch trailer frames, but not any specific trailers. Provided that the trailer frame on your 2000 Performance Trailer is within the 3 x 5 inch range, it will fit. Since the guide is made of PVC, you will not be able to manipulate that portion of it, should it not quite match the boat correctly. You may need to modify the mounting bracket, or fabricate your own, to get it in the position you need for the boat. Another option...
view full answer... - Are the Fulton Boat Guides Available IndividuallyThe Fulton Boat Guide - PVC Construction - 50" Tall # FGB1500100 comes as a pair. Unfortunately, these are not sold individually so the pair is the only option for replacement. If nothing else, you would have a spare should one break again in the future.
view full answer... - Replacement Mounting Hardware for Fulton Boat Trailer Guide-OnsYou might want to try CE Smith u-bolt kit and bracket kit # CE11452-A. These are pre-galvanized and not raw steel but the edges are exposed steel so priming and painting is recommended. They fit frames up to 3 inches wide and 5-1/4 inches tall and they take 3/8 inch nuts, included. The brackets are 4-5/8" long x 3-7/8" wide. On this set up, the u-bolts go around the frame with the threaded ends pointed up, through the brackets which hold down the guide-ons.
view full answer... - Ideas For Installing Fulton Boat Guides On 2010 Tracker Boat Trailer With Steps Running Along FrameThe Fulton Boat Guides # FGB1500100 you were looking at for your 2010 Tracker Tandem Axle Boat Trailer are designed to fit trailer frames up to 3" wide x 5" tall so your steps on the side of the frame will cause the included mounting brackets to not fit. We do not have another style of guides that will fit around the steps, but since the PVC guides are not actually designed to touch the boat you can get some clamps and drill through the bottom of the step and hold to hold the guides secure.

- Schedule 40 PVC Fulton Boat Guide Durability Concerns The Fulton Boat Guide - PVC Construction - 50" Tall item # FGB1500100 is made out of 100% schedule 40 PVC. It is 1/4" thick and is the same grade PVC used in low pressure plumbing in homes. They're meant to provide a frame of reference to help guide the boat onto the trailer. That being said you would have to be trying to break this to get it to fail.

The function is not to physically keep your boat centered on your trailer. I would put these just a few to the side of your boat on your trailer, evenly spaced, so you could use them as a visual aide to know when you are actually centered on your trailer. It sounds like you might have your trailer too far into the water if you have your 23...
