At the small ramp behind Mac's B & Tackle, Newport, NJ ( Belmar )....... a guy parks his car next to the ramp just to watch.
Saw him a few weeks ago and said hello - yup, he was there just to watch the assorted ramp action. Low tide and guess what....yup, guy back's it down off the edge of the ramp - and all the fuss that goes with getting it back up. Two methods work: 1. take a boat anchor, walk down the dock and drop it down to hook onto part of the trailer. Then a few guys just lift - the trailer comes up real easy, not so heavy under water. Driver then pulls forward. Done. 2. The wooden board method.......if you can find one, wedge it under and drive forward to force it up. I had a few mishaps back when I first started trailering. You can never be too careful. By the way, I'm 8' tall and weight 475 lbs......since so many on this thread provided their statistics. |
i checked a chart and according to my weight, i am 7'3".

Good job Smiley! :beer:
There's a nice little flounder hole 100 ft from the boat ramp where I fish. I love to fish there for the entertainment value. I mean every 5 minutes something incredible happens. Guy 1 having a hard time getting on the trailer due to tide, puts boat on the trailer almost sideways and guns the bow into Guy 2's outboard next to him. Guy 2 apparently didn't see that and Guy 1 made sure not to point it out! I've seen it all, and done some of it too. :hi: |

Sounds like you handled it well Charlie. Be careful getting too close and mouthing off too much though. All that street fighting experience doesn't make you bullet proof. You don't know peoples frame of mind, or what drugs they might be on.
And adam sandler sucks, so does will ferrell. |
