Default Boat Trailering 101-- Some people just should not be allowed to own a boat!

You won't believe this video. Future Darwin award

dang, the movie ended too early!

I wanted to see the result of when he finally launches the boat! Even if
he didn't have trouble from the trailer hitch being unlocked I would
certainly expect his impeller to be toast before he gets the boat in the
water, and he might have already melted his exhaust hoses!

I can see a worst case scenario as being the exhaust hoses have split from
the heat, allowing water to rush in once the boat is launched. In the
process of launching the trailer hitch pops off. Now he will have a very
hard time getting the trailer back on the hitch, as the wheels will be waist
deep in water and hard to block, and he wouldn't be strong enough to pull
the trailer up hill to get it up to the car. Meanwhile, the boat
sinks.......
