[Road King Cole]

There is a sign that says $100 fine for powering off...

I know it sounds like allot of steps, but I don't dilly dally...even though there was no one else there...

I am not sure if getting back on and off the boat to power on would actually be any quicker. Perhaps I could give that a try next time.

So it would be:

Pull up and tie off at the dock.

Get the truck, put trailer in water.

get back in boat, start engine, untie and drive boat on trailer.

(leave engine in gear so boat doesn't slide back)

Climb to front, lean over and secure chain\winch cable to bow eye bolt.

Go back and turn off engine.

Climb down in front of boat onto trailer (I'm a little worried about this step).

Get in truck and pull out.

If there are any tricks to make it quicker, I'm all ears...

I'm with ya on the "Dude thing".
