This invention relates to a loading mechanism, including a first roller assembly and second roller assembly, at least one mounting for the first and second roller assemblies, wherein the first roller assembly and second roller assembly each have a longitudinal axis, a drive mechanism configured to rotate the first roller assembly and second roller assembly, so as to move an object, wherein as the weight of the object applies pressure to at least one of the first and second roller assemblies the mounting allows the roller assemblies to move so as to change the angle between the longitudinal axis of the first and second roller assemblies.

A system for supporting a motor of a boat with respect to a boat trailer is provided. The system includes a longitudinally extendable support shaft that is configured to be secured in a selected one of a plurality of extended positions, a motor support disposed at a first end of the support shaft; and a boat trailer connector disposed at a second end of the support shaft. The trailer connector includes a releasable latch to connect the trailer connector to the boat trailer. The trailer connector includes a manually enagageable actuator configured to selectively latch or release the trailer connector from the boat trailer.

Improved boat trailering systems, methods, and apparatus are provided that include a boat trailer and a pivot arm assembly coupled to the boat trailer and adapted to hold a winch hook in reach of a bow of a boat to be loaded onto or launched from the boat trailer. The pivot arm assembly is operative to pivot horizontal under the boat when the boat is loaded on the boat trailer and biased to pivot up into a vertical position when the boat is launched from the boat trailer. Numerous additional aspects are disclosed.

A structural cross frame connector is described having a multipurpose system of attachment. The device has two main forms one with a vertical offset and one without this vertical offset. The central portion has an arch by which weight is distributed accordingly. The connectors have a a group of pass through holes whereby a pass through rod is attached thereto using fasteners. Various structural members can be attached to the pass through rod using pass right and left pass through cavities typically used as structural support members and a central pass through cavity typically used as a hitching station. Leaf springs are also mountable on pass through rods and freely operate on another connector right and left pass through cavity for use as a suspension system.

A locking mechanism includes a base with a notch, a latching member with a hook and a first receiving surface, and a locking member with a lever and a regulation portion. The latching member is rotatable between an engagement position and an engagement release position. The locking member is rotatable between a lock position and an unlock position. The regulation portion does not interfere with the latching member when the locking member is rotated from the lock position toward the unlock position.

The powered kayak storage rack comprises a kayak lifter that may be coupled to the front of a car hauler trailer. The kayak lifter may be operable to transport one or more kayaks. The kayak lifter may be operable to elevate the one or more kayaks above a trailer deck of the car hauler trailer such that one or more hauled vehicles, cargo, or both may be carried on the trailer deck beneath the one or more kayaks. The kayak lifter may comprise an upright support and a rack. The upright support may be a vertically oriented structure that couples to the front of the car hauler trailer. The rack may be a carrier for the one or more kayaks. The rack may be pivotably coupled to the upper half of the upright support.

A bow stop including a Vee portion having a front, bow engaging concave surface and rear surface. The bow stop further having a connection portion for connection to a trailer. The Vee portion has a rigid body or chassis (hereinafter body) and a polymer cover, and the polymer cover overlies a front, Vee-shaped surface of the body. The connection portion is configured for positioning between a pair of spaced apart and generally parallel upstanding arms of a bow stop support structure of a boat trailer and the connection portion includes a connector for connection to the upstanding arms.

The method and use of the padding and underlayment device and method disclosed is directed to method and device for supporting the hull of a watercraft using a bunk board with an underlayment pad or cushion attached to the bunk board, the underlayment pad cushion is constructed with an closed cell foam structure that has little to no water absorption and is 2.5 mm to 12 mm thick, the method also includes the option utilizing closed cell foam as bunk board cover over the bunk board padding and underlayment closed cell foam.

An illustrative embodiment of an enclosed boat trailer may be configured to allow loading of a boat in the water for the purpose of removing the boat from the water using the enclosed boat trailer to engage the boat for storage and/or transportation. An illustrative embodiment of an enclosed boat trailer may be comprised of a roller system positioned on the floor and a right and left rear arm adjacent a rear opening in the enclosed boat trailer. In an illustrative method of use, a boat operator may load and/or unload the boat into the water from the enclosed boat trailer without leaving the boat and without additional personnel.

A composite design bunk rail system comprises low coefficient of friction adjustable slides with a shock absorbing base, simplifying and precluding damages from loading and handling vehicles, a supporting structure, and adjustable support frames.
