Not sure if this should be posted on this thread, but I have to comment/ask. I've never gone over the front rail when launching or retrieving. In truth, I don't even understand... why you would do such a thing?

Couple of reasons not using a rope as you suggest. The places I launch have lots of rocks and want to stay out of them. Do not want to get in the water for any reason.
Also I want to start motor before disconnecting from trailer so the back and forth to the tongue can be easier to do.
Last of all want to avoid gymnastics.
I launch my Jon boat in the fashion as you described using a rope etc.
It hits rocks etc but is light and can be pushed off with a paddle.
