    Default War Eagle 961 Blackhawk Owners


    Hello everyone, I have this boat in a side console and love everything about it except when it comes to loading. The lake I mostly fish is close to 9 ft low so the ramps are steep. I don't know if it's the steep ramps , the trailer is not adjusted right or if it's me but I can't seem to get the boat centered on the trailer. If anyone is running this boat I would like to know how your boat loads and the type of trailer you have. Thanks

    I don't have that boat but I have a self centering roller on my trailer. They work and work well.


    Regards

    I have a smaller War Eagle. I agree with Alphahawks self-centering roller. I have one as well. One thing I have learned especially loading with side current is to get on the roller, slightly pause, then proceed to give it enough throttle to finish aligning/loading. This gives the boat a moment to settle on the roller allowing for better alignment on the trailer. Good luck!

    Fishing is a privilege...catching is a bonus. Enjoy each precious moment we have to experience our great outdoors!
