For starters, in order to use the CE Smith Self Centering Keel Roller for Boat Trailers part # CE29505 on your boat trailer you will also need to use the CE Smith Panel Bracket for 12" Boat Trailer Rollers part # CE10305G and the Roller Shaft with Pal Nuts for Boat Trailer Rollers part # CE10727A.
In regards to installation, these will need to be installed towards the stern of the boat, in the center of the trailer. This would be the only place that would allow them to effectively center... view full answer...
Yes, I would recommend you get Boat Trailer Standard Roller Bunk, part # DL21754, for hauling your boat that weighs 235 lbs in your flatbed trailer. These are sold in 4 foot sections and should work well for you once installed.

The guide-ons you choose for your boat and trailer really depends on the height of your boat.
For a low-profile boat like a fishing boat or a Jon boat I recommend using the 40-inch tall guides, part # CE27620. If you have a taller boat like a cabin cruiser or a deep V hull boat I recommend the 60-in guides, part # CE27640. view full answer...
The Yates Bow Roller for Boat Trailers part # YR300BLK is constructed of a black thermal-plasticized rubber which does have the potential to leave marks on the underside of your boat. For an option that will not leave marks on the underside of your boat, I recommend using the Yates Bow Roller for Boat Trailers part # YR300B or part # YR300Y which are made with a blue thermal-plasticized rubber and yellow thermal-plasticized rubber respectively that are non-marking which means they won't... view full answer...
Because of the length of your boat I would recommend the Dutton-Lainson StrongArm Electric Winch, part # DL25200. This DC-powered winch is designed for boats up to 4,000 lbs and includes a wiring harness for easy installation. I am including a link to the installation instructions on the winch.
The Master Lock Electric Trailer Winch, part # 2953AT, you have referenced, has a maximum boat weight capacity of 5,000 lbs , but only a maximum boat length of 18 feet. I would not recommend this... view full answer...
I have a few options to help with loading the boat on the trailer but the best would have to be the CE Smith Keel Roller for Boat Trailers part # CE29505. In order to mount them you'd need the Roller Shaft with Pal Nuts part # CE10727A and CE Smith Panel Bracket part # CE10305G. I would stick with the same type of roller for the front and rear of the boat trailer. view full answer...
The roller I recommend for a flat hull boat is the Yates Side Guide Roller for Boat Trailers part # YR12243-4P which measures 12" long and can be used with the Roller Shaft with Pal Nuts for Boat Trailer Rollers part # CE10705A. We also have the CE Smith Universal-Fit Split Panel Brackets part # CE10500G. view full answer...
Yes, the Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brake Assembly Kit part # 23-468-469 can be used on a boat trailer. In fact, most boat trailers now come from the factory with electric brakes as they are much more cost effective. I assume your trailer does not already have electric brakes so that means you are also going to need the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # 845476UC3, the Trailer Wiring 7-Way Upgrade Kit part # HS381-9000, and the Hopkins Engager Push-To-Test Trailer Breakaway... view full answer...
The CE Smith Boat Trailer part # CE48810 comes with guide ons which help to center your boat during loading and to hold the boat during transport so I don't really recommend adding anything additional in regards to this aspect because of the size of the boat. However, if you will be launching your boat at night or in the early mornings I recommend using the CE Smith Post-Style Guide-Ons with LED Lights part # CE27740 which will provide visual targets.
What I do recommend using is a two... view full answer...
I spoke with my contact at CE Smith, and they said the Bolster and Swivel Bracket Assembly for Boat Trailers, like part # CE10000G, do not bear the weight of the boat. The U-bolt that attaches the brackets to the trailer frame support the weight of the boat. There should be a bracket attached to each cross member of the trailer frame. If you are buying several brackets, I would recommend part # CE10000G-4. This is a set of 4 of the 9 inch adjustable brackets.
If you need longer adjustable... view full answer...
We have the Hitchmate Boat Trailer Step part # HE4036 which is designed to attach to the frame of a boat trailer in front of the bow of the boat so that you can climb up and into the boat if needed.
I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well. view full answer...
It's fine to use electric brakes on boat trailers, many new boat trailers even come with them nowadays. That said it is recommended to unplug the trailer connector before launching but you should have been doing this anyhow. I have attached the parts needed below.
Electric Trailer Brake Kit part # AKEBRK-35-SA (Use Existing Hubs/Drums)
Trailer Wiring 7-Way Upgrade Kit part # HS381-9000

A bunk-style boat trailer guide-on like the 60-inch CE Smith # CE27600 could be used on a pontoon boat trailer. These bunks serve to guide you when trailering the boat. They mount on the outside of the pontoons as both a visual and a loading guide. These guide-ons are NOT intended to support the boat's weight however.
We do offer a product made specifically for pontoon boat trailers, part # CE27671 also from CE Smith, that may be a better choice for you. view full answer...
We actually have a boat guide on that was designed for pontoon boat trailers with the part # CE27670 which is better designed for the frame styles of pontoon boat trailers. The # CE27760 wouldn't work as it would need a different frame style. view full answer...
I wasn't able to find a decent picture of the boat trailer you have so it's hard to say for certain what would be an exact replacement. We do have kits that work great on boat trailers like yours with the part # TLL16RK which we've installed on similar boat trailers that would be an excellent option. I attached an install video for this kit on a smaller boat trailer for you to check out as well. view full answer...
If you replace the bow roller with one that is non-marring then that should fix any issues with scuffs on the hull of the boat. For this, I recommend the Yates Bow Roller for Boat Trailers part # YR450Y for 4" wide or part # YR300Y for 3" wide. view full answer...
The best way to help with loading your boat off and on the trailer at night would be with a set of lighted boat guide-ons like the CE Smith Post-Style Guide-Ons with LED Lights for Boat Trailers part # CE27760. These guide-ons will provide visual targets to center the boat during loading.
They are 60" tall but can be trimmed and will fit pretty much any boat trailer with frame rails up to 3" wide x 4-1/4" tall. If your frame rail exceeds this measurement then you can use part # CE11416... view full answer...
A 40 inch tall set of CE Smith boat trailer guide ons like part # CE27620 would work well. Your boat shouldn't sit too high above the trailer and a 40 inch set like this would be a great option. view full answer...
The Yakima Rack and Roll, part # Y08106 is capable of towing your 14 foot inflatable boat. You will want to purchase longer 78 inch Crossbars, part # Y00411 to better accommodate your boat.
You'll need some system to tie down the boat, and I recommend using a simpler cam system like the Thule Multipurpose Locking Straps, part # TH832 in order to secure the boat. A system like this helps avoid over tightening to the boat, and allows for added security by securing the 10 foot straps to... view full answer...
Sounds like the 12 volt accessory and brake output circuit are not active on your boat trailer's 6-way wiring which means any 7-way to 6-way adapter like the part # 37575 would work great. view full answer...
