I don't think that is the issues. The boat overlays the fenders by an inch assuming he has the boatmate trailer which is what Lund went to for the GL. The issue he seems to have unless I am wrong is that he is concerned about the distance from the top of the fender to the bottom side of the boat. If the bunk carpet breaks down it seems like it could touch the fender. I would think they would have taken that into account in the design but ya never know.

{{You're looking at the results of a 102" beam boat, with a 87.5" chine width.}}
Did not realize the boat beam was that wide. Looks like the boat will need to go up higher on the trailer and then the trailer will just need to go deeper to float the boat at launch. Might as well put bunks on the fender edges. LOL |

Here is what they said The fenders being so close to the boat could come from a couple different areas. First if the mounting holes on the fenders is off, or if the wrong fenders were installed, there could be a clearance issue. There could also be some issues with the distance between the steps which could bow the fender upwards. However, in the picture that was attached, it does look to have clearance between the boat hull and the fender. I may not be seeing what you are seeing but only because I have one photo. The design we made for this trailer did have to go through Brunswick to make sure they were happy with the fit.

Yes it is a Boat Mate trailer.
Did Boat Mate say what the clearence distance should be? I'd like to see at least 1" -1" 1 1/2" I measured the gap and on both sides it is 1/8" and 3/16" where the chine or very outside edge sits above the fender. |

Just seems too close for comfort, from the pictures anyway.
That small distance between the edge of the hull and the fender top seem to be an accident just waiting to happen, say on a windy day or from current on a river. Possibly raise the bunk height slightly and add some HDPE to the fender top to prevent the gel from getting chipped in case of hull/fender contact. |

I'm assuming that the bunk support brackets are welded to the crossmembers, how do the bunks attach to the brackets? Screwed-up from below, or carriage bolts & nuts? If lag bolts up into the bunks, maybe some 1" thick aluminum spacers could be made, with longer bolts, to raise the bunks off the brackets? HRG

BTW I would not screw around with shims. the trailer was designed with Brunswick and if you modify it and have an issue they can play games with warranty. Make them answer what the clearance should be and have them fix it if wrong. They have a guy they can send out if the dealer is to stupid to figure it out. By the way I see black around the light on the fender. Is that plate the after market stick on crap added by the dealer and if it is that’s why the clearance is smaller.
