Got in a little hurry and crunched the upper bow roller on one side. It was pretty chewed up anyway so I am planning on replacing with the rubber model (on 2005 Puma). I am assuming the rubber one listed in Parts will work? I remember the post on notching the outer ones to cover up the brackets but do nor remember what was used to slice the rubber?

I did it with a razor blade or razor knife, but be careful. It would be easy to slice a finger in the process. Just take your time and youll do fine. It really does improve that roller and protect your boat. KentKent Charles 2002 Pantera Classic & 200 Yamaha VMax

I used an exact blade on the outline of the roller supports and then used a very sharp wood chisel to get the exact depth. When it was finished it looked like it came that way from the factory, best mod I could have done, going to be doing my buddys Stratos trailer as he has tore up the keel of his boat in the same way!!

That is it! Thanks guys this one looks like a no brainer deal that you would think someone could make a few $$$ on. I am ordering my roller today.

BTUNE, I agree. It would be nice if some roller company could make these up for BCB owners. Perhaps BCB could look into this and offer them??
