ROTFLMAO. Sounds like my wife and I when we got our first boat. You'll get
better at it in no time.... Roller trailer or bunks? With rollers,
you're better off walking it on anyway, and you don't have to pull nearly
so far into the water. Just be sure the crank is locked AND you put the
safety chain on before you yank it out- saw some poor guy dump his $30,000
cruiser on the ramp 'cuz he forgot to put the safety chain on. Wife wife
was.... well, you get the picture.

Bunks. Safety chain? What safety chain? Just kidding.


Me and the wife had a helluva public yelling match the first time we ever
took the boat out and I tried to drive it onto the roller
trailer....ooops. Then backed into the steel ramp support with my
stainless prop idling backwards...ooops. (minor nick- no big deal)

That musta hurt; the ego.

Hey, I love the dimension the dog adds to your boating!

Thanks for the shared ancecdotes.
