I am not in the best of shape right now as you guys know, Kenny is now 76 years old with a bum knee. I have always had a roller trailer, and besides the first junk I got with the wellcraft I have had no issues!
I do not have or want any kind of brakes!! They all suck, and give more headaches then benefit!
When we get to the ramp Kenny gets the truck, I stay with the boat, Kenny backs in till I yell stop, then I drive it on trailer not with a ton of power, just enough to get it to go on trailer. Kenny then hooks the cable and hand winches it till he can get the safety chain hooked, no matter if its up tight or not thats as far as he goes, he then drives up the ramp, were I get out and winch it the rest of the way if any. While I am doing that Kenny pulls the plug and were are gone, all takes 5 to 10 min.no matter what tide or wind!
