    The rear flare on the rack touches just a bit on the antenna fin, will need to snip a bit of foam and wedge it in between.

    I use 2 of those little suitcase locks on mine at opposite sides. If someone really wants them, they’ll get them. But this way it’ll be a pain in the ass and take some effort…

    Right now, I have it roughly taped inside the tailgate panel just under the mount. It then runs in between the tailgate and bed to underneath the truck. Then it runs into the cab right under the driver seat and connects right in to the radio.

    it’s not the most aesthetically pleasing way of doing it, but it allows me to easily access/remove/replace the coax whenever I want. And, if the tailgate is closed, there’s no visible wire accept for the tiny bit right underneath the antenna.

    Why not just take a black sharpie and color the knob over and call it a day.

    Because I had no interest in drilling and as stated this works without an issue.

    There’s an existing hole, plugged by a large grommet, that leads to the wiring under the front seat. I cut a small slit in the grommet and run the wire thru it

    I would build a hull wedge in the middle of the trailer. It would resemble the middle portion of your boat between the pontoons. Use the wedge design to get your elevation for the fenders, and also add stability to the boat, keeping it centered on the trailer. Maybe shod it on outdoor carpeting for somewhat of a pad as well.

    I have actually built some more on this trailer, I posted a little bit back on it. I extended the deck, put in guides, and removed a leaf from the overly stiff leaf packs. But I actually have a center guide for the boat, its not pictured here as its currently the stand for my kayak.

    I think the dealer might call that "more than a little modified".
