A level, well-supported boat is a happy boat, one that will launch and ride easily on a well-adjusted trailer.

Look at the keel of your boat and ensure that the keel is resting on the rollers on the center line of the trailer. If it is not, use an adjustable wrench to loosen the nuts holding the keel roller unit in place. Raise the roller unit until the rollers are in contact with the keel, and re-tighten the nuts.
