I have a ShoreMaster hoist for my 21 SSRCX and I just realized this year that there is a small dent on the front right outer underside of the nosecone of the toon. It is most definitely from the toon hitting the side bumper of the hoist as I come in, which sits about 2 inches above the water when the hoist is lowered low enough for the boat to float. Any lower and they don't function to provide the lateral bumper action that they are supposed to serve. Any higher and the boat wouldn't make it into the hoist.
Does anyone have a similar issue? Has anyone mounted trailer guides on their hoist? If so, do you have a link? I'm trying to find a solution so that the deck/rub-rail hits something before the toons do.
We are in a big lake in NY with decent wind/waves and have a very narrow channel to get into the hoist, making getting the boat into the hoist quite a process each time - miss it and you're in big trouble.
I've attached a couple pictures of the side rails to try to explain the situation.

Thanks all!
