Keep your boat's bow away from your winch and in line with it while you are trailering. The bracket accepts any 3" to 4" bow roller or Y-stop. 11-Gauge pre-galvanized steel can be painted to match your trailer.
Features:
Specs:
Typically found on winch stands mounted on trailer tongues, bow roller brackets position a bow roller or Y-stop in front of the winch to prevent the boat's bow from making contact with the winch.
Pre-Galvanized Steel
Pre-galvanized steel parts are stamped from a sheet of steel after it has already been galvanized. The edges of the pre-galvanized parts often lose their zinc coating during the stamping process. Because of the thinness of the coating (less than 1 mil) and the fact that the edges remain exposed, pre-galvanized parts can begin to oxidize and rust quickly, so it's recommended that they be primed and painted.

Used this for the bow roller for a 12' aluminum boat. This works well, but at higher freeway speeds, this allows swaying of the bow. It could use a little more stiffness.
The item is not exactly what was on the trailer, but I do believe it will work with one small adjustment.
Great for PWCs and fishing boats but probably a bit lightweight for larger boats. Works well on my Sea Doo trailer. I was going to make my own, but for what I could buy the material for, I was able to buy two of these. Bottom line, I'd buy these again for what I'm using them for.
There’s nothing wrong with this product but it’s not built very beefy. I reinforced it with a piece of oak down the middle and now it’s plenty strong. etrailer has a bunch of great products and I would recommend you look for a little bit stronger bracket in their catalog.
Quality, very easy to install and shipped quickly after I ordered.
Replaced old flat bow stop with this bracket and roller and works much better. Fast delivery.
fit trailer nicely, thanks
Very happy with this product!
Great product. Just what I was looking for. Couldn't find anything like this this
Part was delivered quickly and is holding up well.
Have never been so Satisfied!!! Thanks to Jessie! Hope to do more business in the future. Charles Merker, Barnes, Wisconsin.
I have a very small bow stop on a 22' ocean going cruiser I just purchased and needed a more substantial bow stop, I found just what I needed and I am very pleased with the results.
Perfect, just what we needed. Easily installed and super fast shipping! Thanks!
it is exactly what i wanted
I have a 35+ plus year old shorelander boat trailer. I had recently purchased a 12 foot tracker flat bottom Jon boat. The problem I had was trying to fit my new tracker flat front boat to my old bow stop. My old bow stop is V shaped. I found a bow stop from etrailer for flat front Jon boats but it did not fit the bracket on my old trailer. I did a little research on this site and found the perfect solution. The solution was a wider mounting bracket to hold the new bow stop. The bow stop is a Yates 3 inch wide. My old bow stop was a Yates 2 inch V. The bracket is very universal for older trailers. etrailer is the only company I could find that offered this product. The prices are great and the shipping is good. I have also purchased new axle mounting plates and leaf spring bushings from here for the same trailer and they fit like a glove. The axle mounting plates and bushings are made by the same people as the bow stop bracket which is CE Smith. Thank you etrailer! I will be a continued customer!
Very sturdy products. Glad i made the purchase. The delivery took 3 weeks though but it's understandable due to COVID-19 and the fact that it made it to Canada.
This bracket worked out perfectly for my installation. I mounted it below the winch for two reasons: it is too narrow for the winch I already had, and the bow stop needed to be positioned below the winch attachment point on the boat (the front boat handle).
This was my first experience with etrailer and I am very satisfied with my order! Ordered on Saturday and package came in on Tuesday just as the prediction said it would! Needed parts in a pinch and etrailer delivered perfectly. I will be back to them anytime I need more parts!!
I searched about 6 different sites for the bracket I purchased. Etrailer.com was the only site that had just this piece. Etrailer.com will get more of my business as my boat trailer project continues.
Sturdier than expected. Looks and works great on the trailer.
After one year it has held up. I am using it on a trailer with a 1436 John boat.
The etrailer folks were extremely helpful. The part I ordered arrived swiftly and was exactly what I needed to complete my boat trailer fix. Happy to recommend and pleased to do more business with them in the future.
