I person I knew when I lived in Florida took a 22 foot old boat out in Tampa Bay fishing. Loads boat on trailer after fishing, never does ANYTHING except hook the winch up, crank it on the trailer, leaves. Going down Hillsboro Ave. in Tampa, hears a noise as he's stopping at a light, looks in his mirror, and heres the boat beside the truck, trying to pass him, grinding down the road! |

Why would anyone NOT want to secure their transom to the trailer? They must forget that roads aren't perfectly flat and trailers have *springs*! |
