My stupid question is: Now that it's getting cold outside, if I want to

The question isn't stupid, especially for a newbie.

If you have a roller trailer, which I suspect you do not, the boat will
roll off the trailer into the water, assuming any sort of incline on the
boat ramp. Make sure you keep the boat attacked to the trailer until you
want it to roll off!

Seeing how you found it just incredible that Justa made a spelling
error, it's ATTACHED, not attacked.
