go over and offer to help out whoever is having a problem.

Just be careful of morons. About a month ago I was helping a guy
unload a 22 foot center console and the anchor, on a pulpit, got hung
up on the winch. I told him to wait and I moved in to bump it loose
then he backed up.
I got hit and went down hard on the ramp. I am still having trouble
with my knee.
Sometime it is better to just watch.

I suppose, but I don't take any pleasure in watching guys who are having
a difficult time on the boat ramp. At one time or another, all of us
have had a bad experience launching or retrieving a boat. Considering
the possibilities for an injury to ones self or the boat, I don't see
much humor in the situations.
