Replace Boat Trailer Carpet With Extra Wide ( 5" X 54" ) Bunk Slides on 2040-parts.com

Solid white marine grade polymer slides take the wear and tear…so your Boat, Pontoon PWC, or Jet Ski doesn't.  These are solid polymer, similar to Starboard, so there are no hidden hollow spots or voids to cave-in as in injection-molded strips.  The smooth flat 5” wide surface spreads the weight of the hull…so it’s easier on the finish than small individual or grooved strips.  Doesn’t hold and bury sand and grit like carpet.  All edges meeting watercraft are rounded and the base is square so they butt well with a smooth top transition.  The screws are in flat counter bored pockets and the heads are approximately 1/4 inch away from any contact with the boat.   SOLD AS INDIVIDUAL STRIPS, not in pairs… so you can order what you need…not an overpriced package of too many.  Each strip is: .45” thick x 5” wide and 54” long.  Apply directly to wooden bunks or over worn carpet with supplied stainless steel low profile pan head screws, no countersink screws to loosen or pull through.

 To determine your requirements measure the length of each bunk; start the glides at the rear most edge.  Just order the number of strips you need. Please remember to keep the bow strap hooked until you are safely in the water.  These can really reduce the friction!  When the water is low, it is still workable.  Simple-to-install and reduces the effort of loading and unloading. If needed, they are easy to cut and drill with common woodworking tools. Custom sizes up to 96 inches long are available please make sure the size isn't too large to ship at a reasonable cost. Unaffected by sun, weather, and seawater.  PLEASE NOTE: IN THE  CONTIGUOUS 48 STATES SHIPPING & HANDLING IS A FLAT AMOUNT  OF ONLY $ 18.49 PER ORDER ( 1 to 100 it is still only  $ 18.49 )  VIA UPS GROUND ONLY; regardless of the number ordered.

   Here are some emails we have received:

  "After trying several different types of Bunk Glide material, our rescue squad ordered a set of glides from you last week and installed them on our PWC trailer right away.  The previous set of glides was a set of 16" pieces that were installed with 6 screws per piece.  The problem is that we load our PWCs onto our trailers in reverse, so when we slide them off on the beach, they are nose first into the water.  With the other single glides, the rear of the PWC would catch the leading edge of each individual piece and last week, a piece of the rear corner of the PWC was damaged while loading it onto the trailer.

  I found your website by "accident" and we are extremely pleased with your product.  The single piece glide eliminates the previous problem and on our 9 foot bunk, we only have one seam to contend with and that is not a problem with your glides.  They butt together rather nicely.

Thank you for an outstanding product.  When seconds count in the water rescue business, we can count on Surfix glides for ease of unloading and loading.

Feel free to use any comments from the email in your promotions.  Some things that you may add are:  "Quality material" and "extremely easy to install".  You may use our name as well, "Hatteras Island Rescue Squad" (Buxton, NC)."   

 “For anyone who doubts, these are truly the easiest aftermarket addition to bunks I have ever seen. I took my cordless screwdriver to the boat ramp and installed them in 5 minutes. I can now launch my 20 footer by myself and no longer have to worry about my friends flaking out. The boat centered itself with ease and took less than half the strength to winch up than normal. This should save me a few winch straps along the way! Thanks again"…Gabriel H.

 “Hi, just wanted you to know that the product is installed and working fine. The launching process is definitely a lot smoother, just that my procedure has to be changed somewhat now that I have to leave the winch connected or else the boat is on the ramp. It is a one handed launch now and I really like the fact that there is no wet carpet oozing water for three days and causing rusted trailer brackets. Now in a matter of a few hours everything is fairly dry and nothing is dripping. Oh well, I'm sure you know all this stuff already, thanks again."

"I have installed your product on my trailer and they work wonderfully! Before I installed the Surfix bunk slides launching my 18 ½ foot Sea Ray was very difficult at low tide. I could not do it myself, and my 14 year old son and I had to use all of our strength to push the boat off the trailer. At low tide I had to put the back of the car into the salt water. Cranking the boat on to the trailer was also very hard. With your product installed, the boat really does glide off of the trailer with very little effort. I can now easily launch the boat by myself with the car well away from the salt water. Cranking the boat onto the trailer is now very easy. Your product is fantastic! Thank you,"

"Anyone who values their jet ski would be crazy not to invest in this product. It's simply brilliant. From a very happy buyer, thanks again"

 "I have a 22-foot Angler and last weekend I was out all day and was dreading having to crank the boat onto the trailer.  To my surprise when I returned, my father had added your trailer glides to my trailer. I can’t believe how much difference that made; the boat seemed like it was sliding on butter and it even centered better on the trailer.  My dad said it only took 10 minutes to install with a cordless drill.  Thank you
