What happens if the bunks are too low on a trailer?

When the bunks on a trailer are too low, the stability of the boat during transport is compromised. An inadequate height can cause the boat to tip or sway while being towed, especially around turns or over uneven road surfaces. This tipping may not only put the boat at risk of falling off the trailer but could also present a danger to other vehicles on the road. Properly positioned bunks ensure that the boat is held securely in place, preventing any unintended movement and maintaining balance.

Other options such as the boat sinking or the engine wearing out faster are not directly related to the height of the bunks, and while launching the boat can be an issue if the bunks are misaligned, the primary concern with improperly low bunks is indeed the potential for tipping during transit.
