Hell you guys just tear up the ramp by powering on and off the trailer, Hell I can float mine on and off quicker than most can drive it on and still not have it centered. Maybe one day when the boy's old enough I'll let him drive the truck and pull it out.
Ever wounder how those big holes get at the end of the ramps just past the concrete? Don't notice them if the waters high but you always seem to find one when the waters low don't you? or if your helping a friend with a thirty footer or bigger boat right? |

There are some lakes up my way that have banned power loading for that exact reason. My current trailer I can load either way the only pain is not having the traditional bow crash pads, dealer talked me into the bow stop instead which does not work well, the rub rail ends up on top of it on a steep ramp and it also jags up the pinstripping on the bow. |

The bow stop should be just above the eyelet with the strap going underneath it, unless you have one of those dual rubber jobs that are spaced out a little more.
