We have a couple of great options for pontoon boat guide-ons. First, if you want to go with a roller-style we have # CE27672. The rubber rollers are designed so that they won't scratch the boat.

If you like the bunk style we have # CE27671. The bunks on this set will have a bit more surface area than the rollers but eventually would will need to replace the carpet on the bunks.

On pontoon boats the guides are supposed to mount more in the center of the trailer so that pontoons will surround the guides.

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.
