I have owned both roller and bunk trailers. I prefer a bunk for typical fresh water ramps (shallow angle). In salt water, the ramps tend to be steeper due to the tidal range, and a roller is usually easier to use on a steep ramp.

I think bunks support the boat better.

I sand blasted my drive, gimbal and transom assembly, then repainted properly using zinc chromate primer and gloss balck paint (on my Bravo 3) It has held up very well and looks much better.

C-Map rocks. I have a Standard Horizon plotter and am quite pleased.

Sounds like a nice boat. Have fun.
