My driveway is realitively flat. The trailer will roll a little bit if I
dont put blocks behind it. My trailer has the big black plastic rollers that the boat rolls up on. I figured that it wouldnt slide off without the water but I just thought I would see what you folks do. I'll try releasing the winch VERY slowly tonight and hope that the boat doesnt move. --Cameron "RichG" wrote in message m... Assuming your driveway has a severe slope ( this most be so, if you are very concerned)...why not just hook the boat to your rig; BACK the rig up the driveway; leaving the boat and vehicle turned around? That way, the boat will be pointing DOWN the driveway and won't be likely to slip off. Just leave the rig attached while you make the change and then put the boat back where-ever it is now. I don't think my boat would slip off ( I have bunks, you may have rollers) on a driveway without the lubrication from floating in the water. -- RichG manager, Carolina Skiff Owners Group on MSN http://groups.msn.com/CarolinaSkiffOwners |
