Bunk Spacing for RXTX 300/325

[pwgsx]

I picked up a used boat cradle that currently has 2x6 flat bunks. My plan is to shorten up the existing swivel brackets to fit a 2x4 bunk instead. On center I am at 20 1/2 inches. Do you think that will work for a RXTX 325? OR should I keep with the 2x6 wide bunks? My other option is to remove the swivel brackets completely and run a 2x6 or 2x8 vertically and connect them to the inside of the welded posts.

The front keel on some modern PWCs could hit the cross beam if you space the boards too far apart.

I just picked up a new GTX. I am adjusting the bunks on my lift and wanted to see where you landed on this. I cant decide what angle to set the bunks (vertical or slightly "V" shaped) and what spacing. I have it slanted and at 21" outside to outside and I am not happy with how it sits. Any advice?

I stood the 2x6 up on end and they slant inward a tad. The distance between the inside bunk to inside bunk is between 13.5 or 15 inches. I cannot remember but wont be back there until friday to measure. The ski sits perfect!

Thanks for the info. This helps a lot.
