I have a 23' Chapperalle. and double axle trailer (total weight est 5000
pounds.) I'd like to tow it up a ramp and into a storage yard then launch once/year. Ramp is about 20% and maybe 20' long, the yard is less than 100 yards away. My vehicle is a Chevy Malibu with a wheezy 4, and the trailer has an electric winch. Think if I stayed in Low, and went slow I could do it? Absolutely. If you stay very low, you will be dragged into the lake slowly enough to be able to escape before the car sinks and sinks the boat and trailer. |
