The instructions that came with the unit tell how to install the baffles but it is not clear where the baffle actually goes.....Atwood customer service says no baffles but the instructions say differently....

Customer Support!
April 27, 2018

Etrailer is simply amazing, they provide a lot of information and customer support. As a new boat owner, the trailer I purchased with the boat needs a lot of work and Etrailer has been instrumental in answering all of my product technical questions related to bunk board placements, live loads, and even additional welding configuration tips. As a new boat trailer owner, Etrailer was able to provide an education that was instrumental in configuring my trailer.

Bow Rollers

I've been studying boats and trailers in adds. Some don't have any, others have one and I've seen some with two or three. My opinion is that three is better at guiding the boat and keeping it straight especially if there's current.

I appreciated the effort Jameson put into providing me with a detailed reply and recommendation. However, I am reluctant to change my OEM hitch for a larger 2" after-market hitch, not just due to my recent investment in the OEM hitch, but also because it goes against Honda's recommendations. I'm not sure if that would void the warranty on my brand new car, and I'm also concerned about causing damage to the car. An after-market class III 2" hitch would definitely give me a lot more options for bike racks and other accessories, but it also would enable me to attach accessories that are too heavy, which the CR-V is not built to handle. Although I could keep the weight limit in mind myself- a future user or owner of my car might not. I decided to be cautious and stick to Honda's recommendations for my new car. I bought a Yakima Literider 3, which is aluminum (so the rack itself is light.) It can hold 3 bikes, but only up to 90 lbs total. Their marketing material actually shows the rack on a CR-V, so it seems like this rack was built with the CR-V in mind. I am still very limited in the weight of the bikes, but it was the only solution I could come up with that works with the Honda hitch and weight limits.

Purchased trailer wheels from those guys. After 8 months and only 100 mi in them, they started to rot. Cracks everywhere, not safe for driving at all. I wrote a review, which they never published because is not at least 4 or 5 stars. Go look a the products reviews on their page. You will see ONLY 5 star reviews!

I appreciate the turn around time and the details provided in the response to my question, Chris even went so far as to reach out to other owners of my hitch to get their opinions. While I have decided to fabricate my own cover (only because the other covers were not large enough to cover the sliding rails) that is not one bit the "fault" of etrailer (I blame B&W :) )
I am completely satisfied with my interactions here, and would recommend to anyone.
