I'm assuming you're refering to something like what i use

Heaps better than rollers those side supports are just that only there to balance the boat from rocking on trailer not there to take any weight.

Whether glass or Alloy the keel is stongest point on a boat is it's keel & thats where weight should be taken up

Yep realise that about the keel taking the weight. What im not sure about is the material they use? How does it go against the gelcoat sliding and hitting it?? Id imagine it would be a softish sorta rubber or poly that wouldnt damage the boat? Do you know what they use?

Would like to see one in the flesh and see how a boat loads onto it (a glass boat)

I use polyethalene wont scratch paint so should effect gellcoat
Besides side thingy's should be adjusted so they dont cop any load when boat slides up on them.

I found that blue PVC stuff (supposed to be skid material) was damaging my gelcoat Rumpus.
The boat was sitting on keel rollers and pretty well balanced from side to side and the side skids were taking bugger all weight.

Jumpy struggled to get the Viva boat (white teflon skid shit) off the trailer at Revesby ramp where my boat will roll off under its own weight on that ramp.

Maybe if you only use very steep ramps and sort of float on & off skid trailers with glass boats would be OK but I wouldn't risk it or limit myself to certain ramps.

Why don't you just fix your trailer if it's broken or is it rusted out?

I can launch without water, do you need water to semi-float off?

I have no interest in how much trouble you have getting your boats to float off Jumpy, just relating to Rumpus on how skids are not as easy as rollers on flatter ramps.

Why do you take everything so personally Jumpy, I'm sure on steeper ramps skid trailers are perfect.
Just depends on how you like to do it I guess.

Sorry mate but it was true, I watched you having trouble with my own eyes.

Quotes from the net is just a bit of fun, I think a lot of them would be people not quite getting across what they mean to say.

I had a choice a couple of years ago and I suspect a skid trailer would have been cheaper and definitely less maintenance but I still went with the rollers. No regrets here.

It's easy to tell when Jumpy's wrong he either starts typing in a large font or, as in this case, he changes the subject.
You're too easy to see through Jumpy.
