When I fish alone I wind up walking a little bit on my trailer tougue at launch/retreive.

Anyone ever put anything on the trailer to make it less-slippery? I was thinking about some of that spray-on nonskid material in a can... Is this a bad idea?

I like the peel and stick sandpaper type tape.

Its durable, easy to apply, works great and you can remove it if you want to.

On my small boat I put a piece of plywood across the trailer right behind the winch where the channels spread--forward of the front roller where the rise in the bow doesn't hit it. It gives me a big platform to step out onto when I'm loading up.

Yeah, I've done the stick on non-skid strips before. Worked okay, but you're still stuck with a fairly narrow beam to walk on. Here's another option Walk Plates

I need some of that peel and stick stuff for the tops of my fenders. It used to have rubber things but they done flew off.

I got some tape at Lowes. Might apply it today. Will post some pics if I have time.

Okay there is the tape on the trailer. Got it at Lowes near the paint.

You can also see the spare tire/wheel/hub/spindle that I got from Loadmaster. Should have used a stainless chain on the lock as you can see.

lOOKIN' GOOD LUKE!!

I use the galvanized chain on my spare tires. Stainless steel would work too. The zinc plated chain will not last in the salt water very long.
