•
Make sure someone else on shore is holding the lines attached to
the boat.
•
Lower the motor and prepare to start the engine (after running
blowers - if equipped - and checking for fuel leaks).
•
Start the boat motor and make sure water is passing through the
engine cooling system.
•
Release the winch and disconnect the winch line from the bow
when the boat operator is ready.
At this point, the boat should be able to be launched with a light shove or
by backing off the trailer under power. Finish loading your boat at a
sufficient distance from the ramp so others may use it.
Retrieval
The steps for removing your boat from the water are basically the reverse
of those taken to launch it. However, keep in mind certain conditions may
exist during retrieval that did not exist during launching. As you approach
the takeout ramp, take special care to note such factors as:
•
Change in wind direction and/or velocity.
•
Change in current and/or tide.
•
Increase in boating traffic.
•
Visibility,
etc.
First, unload the boat at dock or mooring if possible. Next, maneuver the
boat carefully to the submerged trailer and raise the lower unit of the
engine. Then, winch the boat onto the trailer and secure it. Finally, drive
the trailer with boat aboard carefully out of the ramp to a designated
parking area for cleanup, reloading, and an equipment safety check.
Practice will make launch and retrieval a simple procedure. The best
advice is to retrieve your boat cautiously with safety as your main concern.
Storage of trailer
Since your boat may be sitting on its trailer for quite some time before it is
used again, it is important to store the trailer properly. To remove weight
from the wheels, put cinderblocks or wood beams under the tongue and all
four corners of the trailer frame.
