Apparatuses, watercraft supports comprising the apparatuses, and methods of loading watercraft on the watercraft supports for promoting centering of a watercraft while loading the watercraft onto a watercraft support. The apparatuses include at least two units each having a rigid arm having first and second ends and a barrier component configured to float on water. The first end of the rigid arm is configured to be secured to a watercraft support such that the rigid arm pivots relative to the watercraft support. The second end of the rigid arm is configured to be secured to the barrier component such that the rigid arm pivots relative to the barrier component. The units may be located adjacent to oppositely-disposed longitudinal sides of the watercraft support and used to directing the watercraft to be centered over the watercraft support during loading from a body of water.
