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.

This is the first time to refurbish a boat trailer. Your website was very easy to search. I found exactly what I was looking for, ordered it, and I think two days later I had received it. And it worked on my trailer like I thought it would. It does not get any better than that.
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.
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.
It fit my trailer perfectly. Now my boat sits 6 inches back further on the trailer so that my transducers do not get damaged.
Thank you - Doug R.
High quality and exactly what we were looking for.
Whish ce smith would have made it a little bit more durable. I bought thus one so I had a spare because it gets bent fairly easy
had to replace rusted bunk brackets...these fit perfectly...the u bolts were a tad wider in width and bigger than the holes on the trailer so had to modify the holes to accomodate the u bolts...everything worked fine albeit took a little more time
Perfect, just what we needed. Easily installed and super fast shipping! Thanks!
A good quality item arrived in timely fashion and is doing exactly what it is supposed to, supporting the bow of my boat from the winch post

Awesome 100
Works great with my boat
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!
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.
I bought this bow roller mounting bracket to replace an older bracket that did not fit my new set-up. The new bracket fits perfectly. It was delivered well ahead of the projected delivery date.

The bracket seems to be working fine. No problems
Works well and adjustable
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).

All working well, thanks.
Friendly service fast delivery.
Product arrived fast and works perfectly on my boat trailer.
My trailer came without a bow roller. The parts I ordered were just what I needed to add that to my trailer. Fast delivery and good price. Web site was good also.

Great
Helped rehab old trailer into well functioning unit.
High quality product that fits.
The bow stopper bracket was an exact replica of the 20 yr old broken one on my Hustler jon boat trailer. Standard shipping got me the part in only 2 days. Sweet. Might add a 2x4 to the center for strength to handle occassional boat imact when motoring onto the trailer. This is a great site to find difficult to locate trailer parts.
Etrailer was the only place that I found the bow stop bracket I needed for my jon boat. The price was reasonable and shipping was fast. I would recommend etrailer to others for sure.
Very sturdy piece. Easy to install, much better bow stop than what I had before. Thanks guys!
