All depends on the ramp and the type of trailer you have. I could pull my V up on the rollers no problem. Now with the bunker trailer and the new ramp I am using at the town docks I have to power her up to the winch. I am not crazy about doing it but how else you going to get her up on a shallow ramp with a bunk trailer?
I always try to be aware of who is around me and be curtious at all times.

So from your post I assume you either fish alone or either the wife or friends do not know how to help. The best thing I ever did was to teach the wife how to back up the trailer and she is better then most guys. I back down she get into truck I hop into boat get it started and she backs up an taps the breaks so I slide off. When we return she goes and gets the truck and backs it down until I tell her to stop. She gets out and points either way to help line me up on the trailer. I found if you nose it in some then allow the rollers to line it up some before hitting the gas. I slowly give it the gas as my wife points either way then when I get close she holds her hands apart showing how much further I need to go. When I hit the stop she throws on the hook and I jump down and give it a crank or 2 and off we go.
