To help keep your pontoon boat centered, the best guide-ons are the roller style, the CE Smith Roller Style Guide-Ons for Pontoon Boat Trailers # CE27672.
I like the roller-style because in windy conditions they help the boat keep its momentum as opposed to the bunk style which cause friction. These guide-ons fit pontoon boat trailer frames up to 3" wide x 4-1/4" tall though you can use the longer U-bolts # CE11416 for frames up to 3" wide x 5-1/4" tall.
I have added a link to a video review as well of the CE Smith Roller Style Guide-Ons for Pontoon Boat Trailers # CE27672.
