High power up the trailer...scours the hell out of the fill at the water end of the ramp. It's now
illegal and can earn a ticket at the Fairfax County ramps - at least the one at Pohick Bay. When
they rebuilt the ramp down there they took pictures of the old ramp to show why the water end had
been breaking off. Big holes under the end of the ramp.

Besides, winching is good exercise. Hell, if he could afford that rig, he could afford an electric
winch.
