Backing the Trailer

Backing the boat trailer may sometimes be a difficult task. It is recommended that you
practice backing the trailer in a vacant lot or open area before attempting it at a congested
boat launch.

Follow these basic rules when backing:

1)

Turn the front vehicle wheels in the opposite direction in which the trailer is to
travel.

2)

Back vehicle normally once the trailer turn is started.

3)

Have your vehicle equipped with a right hand mirror, as required by law when
towing.

Launching

Following are some helpful tips to assist you with launching your boat:

•

Before launching, check the type and condition of the ramp. Ramps are usually
made of cement but often times are made of asphalt or even sand. When wet,
these ramps can get very slick and can cause additional difficulties when
launching your boat.

•

Have someone assist you when backing your boat. Back the trailer to the edge of
the water and stop. Be sure to properly secure your vehicle.

•

Prepare for placing the boat in the water by removing any tie-down straps,
disconnecting tail light connections, and attaching a line to the bow eye fitting.
If you are using an outboard, be sure that the outboard unit is trimmed up. Be
sure to re-install the bilge drain plug if it has been removed.

•

To launch, back the trailer into the water to a point where the boat will clear the
bottom. Stop and secure the vehicle.

•

Unlock the winch line from the boat. Push the boat into the water and have your
assistant guide the boat with the bow line.

•

Once the boat is cleared of the trailer, pull your vehicle out of the water and park
it.

Reloading Procedures

To reload, repeat the unloading procedures in reverse. Other important tips to remember
are:

•

Try to idle coast onto the trailer; do not power onto the trailer.

•

When pulling the boat onto the trailer, be sure the boat is centered as much as
possible. The distance between the boat and runner board should be
approximately equal on both sides.

•

Make sure the boat is securely in place before moving the trailer.
