How close are your guild rails to your toons?
At what distance does your toon seem to center itself best?

My guide boards are right beside my toons, less than an inch clearance--
Not sure I understand the centering question, and I think the answer would be different on a tri toon than a twin tube-
The way I have mine set up the boat centers itself as I advance on the trailer-

My inside guides cradle my center toon, about 1/2" of clearance on both sides of it.

On my tritoon the guides hit the inside of each of the outer pontoons. Nothing hits the center pontoon as a guide. When the boat comes to rest and gets centered on the bunks the guides are probably 1.5 to 2" from rubbing the pontoons.
