    Default trailer cat walk


    most of my fishing is done on electric only lakes. power loading boat is not an option. i nose the boat into the bunks using trolling motor, then climb out and walk on frame of trailer to get to winch. well old age, and slick frame rails isn't a good combo. i'm looking for a pre made cat walk to make it easier. yes i could fab something, but prefer it to be powder coated or aluminum to match trailer. anyone know a source i can purchase something

    I saw those. They are designed to go on tongue of trailer, I need something longer to go from winch post back to first cross member

    Could you not buy 2 of them and run along your outside trailer rail on top? Just a thought. It would give you more walking width!

    Yes I could put a couple on rail but prefer something closer to center. Right now I step out on bunk.

    A wireless remote control for the winch would be neat, insert the hook on the boat, go to the back of the boat, and "Ride the slide".
    Step out at the front of the trailer. You could bolt a step on your trailer up front where you need one, if you like.
    Don't forget to tip your hat to the onlookers standing around with their mouths open.
