The problem with Tom is that he cannot admit when he is wrong and gets
upset when getting caught. That has been shown time after time here.

If I dismiss his insults and hardheaded nature (most often turning to
those insults after being proved wrong) I am sure I would be glad to
have a beer with him so I can throw it in his face and tell him to f
off.


Down right friendly place you folks have here.

When launching your boat...
 

The dock is not adjacent to the launch ramps I use; you have to drive the
boat from the trailer to the dock to park your tow vehicle or pick up your
crew.
If I have crew, I get to board the boat while trailered and turn on the vent
blower. When the trailer is backed down the ramp, I start the engine and
lower the drive. When the engine's idling and I'm reasonably sure it won't
stall, I release the winch safety chain and strap and back off the trailer
and over to the dock. While the crew turns on and checks all the electronics
I park the tow vehicle.
If I'm alone, I have to get my feet wet to get into the boat once the
trailer's backed up. Once at the dock, I have to run back and park the tow
vehicle.
I normally only use a bow and stern line as the boat is seldom tied up for
more more than 45 minutes when unattended. I normally only use two fenders.
I have three more lines available for tieing up or alongside towing, 200' of
tow line for stern towing, a pair of fenders on a three foot line to use as
walking fenders -usually to protect other boats from my ski tower, and five
more fenders to protect hulls.
All of my lines have an eye at one end. When tieing up at a dock, the eye
goes on my cleat. If tieing up with another boat, they get the eye and I
keep the bitter end so that I can untie if necessary.
I don't use any caribiners because I consider them a danger to fingers.

I generally launch and retrieve alone
I have a fairly long utility line on my boat for various uses. Snap on
one end, eye spliced in the other.When launching I put the eye over a
cleat on the boat, coil the line loosely on the deck and snap the
other end on the winch crossbar. Then when the boat rolls off I can
swing the snapped end over to a couple dock posts and tie it off to
the stern cleat. You never "lose" the boat that way. Even if the stern
gets away from you, you still have a line on the
boat. If I see the wind is going to fight me I will attach a long
stern line and tie it off to the dock "down ramp" a ways before I roll
off the boat so I can pull it in after launching.
I assume the rules are different at a busy public ramp but we have a
private ramp in our neighborhood and most of the time I never see
another soul when I launch or recover. Even so this still goes pretty
fast.


What you are doing isn't much different from what I do, except I tie off
the bow and stern. The long lines help where I launch because the finger
pier next to the ramp is long, and I can tie off the boat where I want it
to be for launch and retrieval. The ramp is about 20' wide, and I always
launch and retrieve in its center.

I think being unafraid to get your feet wet is a key to efficient launching
and retrieval operations. A pair of beat up sandals are great for both
operations.

Why would anyone laugh at you? It's not like you would ever do or say
anything that would make one want to laugh out loud. ;)

Indeed, most especially those who cannot step to the plate and offer
an apology when one is due.

Hint.........marina fuel dock pricing.

Eh?

So did you see the light concerning standard accounting practices used
by all marina fuel docks, eh?
