RAP, i did that with my V, except the bow did not come off the trailer. i had put silicone on the bunks because it was getting hard to winch up. i was backing down the ramp and my wife was standing beside the ramp watching. the boat started sliding and she yelled and i hit the brake. of couse that made it worse, the boat slid another foot or two and the stern hit the ramp. there i was with a boat half on the trailer in the middle of the ramp. i was able to winch it up until the stern cleared the concrete, but i could not get it back on the trailer. i thought the problem was i was fighting gravity, so i pulled the trailer up on level ground. i got the truck on the top of the ramp and when the trailer came to the top, it BENT the trailer where the the frame breaks and goes to the tongue. it was not a happy day.
