I just spoke with Ryan at IM to discuss the Baja trailer issue. I explained that I like the side guide board idea but the brackets on the ones I've seen hold the boards out away from the boat and can't be adjusted any closer. I mentioned that if the bracket angle was 90 degrees that would solve the problem and the side guides would probably be very effective.
