My buddy has one and it works great! I looked into it for mine, but you have to have 14" between the eye and the nose of the boat, mine doesn't have that.

We have a different brand but same thing and it works great. Makes launching/loading by yourself way easier

This would require me to actually be lined up on the trailer and put the bow eye where it goes  probably won't work for me. I stink at loading my boat on the trailer, been doing it for 30 years and I still miss
See you on the lake and have a great day!

My buddy has one and loves it. He is always telling me I need one. My boat is easy to get out of the front. Trailer sticks way out. The front of his boat is much harder as it mostly covers the trailer. He can back the trailer close to the dock on one side of the ramp and just step out of the boat. Works great for him.

I have one on my Ranger and had one on my Skeeter before.
I love it and will not own another boat without it.

I have one on my Skeeter and love it. I basically do same as above, back in close to dock if available, and just walk off dock into boat, pull the lever, and back right off. pull to other side of dock or bank, PP's down, hop back out and pull truck out and park, and then back to boat. Quick and easy if you are by yourself. If team/tourney, typically we are all helping each other load/unload so even faster.

got one of the other brand on the champion, works excellent and makes it easier to load/unload when solo.
