EASY Way to Launch & Load Your Boat by Yourself Even With NO Dock!

UNLESS,
Your hands are on the bottom of the steering wheel of the towing vehicle,
your theory of "if you want to turn your boat to the right, turn your wheel to the right" is totally out the window, because what happens it's precisely the opposite of what you said period!
You're misleading people and that is being irresponsible!!!

i should probably do it like this so i can get off the ramp faster but luckily where i live the ramps arent that busy. unless its a tournament day and usually those are on the weekends when i dont take fish to the market anyways. i just loosen the main strap that holds the boat on the trailer like a couple feet back down slowly into water and watch for the boat to start floating then get out release that main hook get in it and start it and park it. but ya this is a lot faster. sometimes my boat will come all the way off trailer but because its still attached with that main hook it wont go anywhere and the launch i use is kind of protected from the wind and waves. good tips though.

You.did not disconnect the trailer lights.
Is this because you have LED lights?
My bulbs will pop if I do not disconnect.

Thanks for this. I plan on purchasing a bass tracker soon and this helps.

We have rocky shores around here....

Thanks I have a small fishing boat. This really helps

I think I'm in love

Will the tow vehicle slide down the ramp or the tires spin when leaving the boat ram if the boat ramp is coated with slippery slime

Thanks for the video it helped me understand the process. At 67 I was given a boat and going solo was scary in away but after times tries I'm nailing it. I go fishing once a week or twice a week no matter what most solo...

Maiden voyage of 2023 coming soon ... I'm guessing the best practice for me will be going to a small lake and training on their boat ramp on a quiet Tuesday and get some experience in

It's nice to see how to do that thank you

Whoa! All wrong. You turn the steering wheel to the right, and the boat goes left. You turn the steering wheel to the left, and the boat goes right. You're just confusing everyone. Check out the hand at the bottom of the steering wheel technique for an easy to remember method. Unless you're like me and can think in opposites. I readily use the steering wheel right to go left and steering wheel left to go right all the time. Otherwise, good job with the launching solo tips.

When backing up if you turn your wheel right the trailer will go left not right. Put your hand on the bottom of the wheel and move it right for trailer to go right and vice versa.

Just 1 thing. That's not a transom saver. That's for hydrologics. Transom save is a bar that connects to trailer to under the motor itself. Without that bar attached to trailer the motor will bounce.

Great simple explanation. Hitching the line to the truck near the cab is a good suggestion - keeps your feet dry. Thanks!

I’d love to own a boat, but being an amputee with on leg would make it harder to do and with someone. If I could do it solo…. I’d have one. So I ordered a new 2022 Can Am max defender limited with hvac. Easier to handle. Great video though.

Cool chick.

you kinda glossed over how you got out of the boat and into your truck without getting your feet wet?? this is the problem i have,,,,,

Good job.

wow i remember the first time I taught someone to back a trailer.. To back a trailer the way she says... your hand must be on the bottom of your steering wheel. otherwise learn to think in reverse... Good job anyhow!!!

How did you get from boat to truck without getting in water you did not show that someone got there feet wet

Beautiful boat 😍 thanks for the tips!

Don't follow what she says. Backwards of what she said. When backing up if you want your boat to go right, turn left. If you want it to go left, turn right. She is talking about steering from the bottom of the wheel, that's not the way people drive.

You made it look 👀 extremely easy.
Very professional video.
Thank you 🙏🏻

Now I just have to do it myself 😎🙏🏻

My new boat is a fiberglass and it’s about 3500 pounds with 4 batteries and trolling motor plus the power pole.

Definitely don’t want to scratch her up.

The guy who I bought it from forgot to put the plug 🔌 when we went out, luckily these boats don’t sink and have self draining.
3 big guys on Clear Lake in Texas and doing approximately 40 miles an hour so one point lol 😂

My small Lowe aluminum boat almost sank on me at the boat ramp by the time I went to get my car.

Thank GOD for the lifeguards and sheriffs on our lake here in California, they saved my boat and helped me load it on the trailer and drain it out ❤️🇺🇸💪🏻🙏🏻

Easy way to launch a boat alone.. dont be a woman.

You put your hand on the bottom of the steering wheel and steer from there. Then if you want your boat to go left you slightly go left with your hand on the bottom of the steering wheel.
The same for if you want to go right. With your hand on the bottom of the steering wheel just slightly move your hand to the right. Go slow and that is one easy way to know how to back up your boat.

Easy peezy, multiply difficulty/complexity by a factor of 100 when doing this with a much bigger boat! BUT, I do it - so it can be done.

Nice job, don't forget to unplug the trailer wires before backing in the water.

Good video ....except to cut right, you turn left, and to cut left you turn to the right.
my 2 cents. Thanks

Thank you soo much your a bad ass chic helping to be confident I’m watching my boat by myself I truly appreciate the good advice detail you do and share with us thank you so much please make more for us women to be confident in launching our boats

Good info, but a few issues I am still weary of (new boat owner). 1. Onshore winds, concerns about the hull scraping/bouncing off rocks. 2. Getting off and on the boat with a big drop (I have a deep V). 3. Need to raise the motor in shallow water and the ability to get traction in the water with the motor.

I'm going to need a one-on-one training course

Woo! Thank you! I just bought my first boat, tired of having to go with all the boys. I will be on a lot of solo trips. Thanks for the great tips!

Just drive the boat up to shore or dock lol u don’t need the rope.

Thank you so much! I was always curious about solo launches. Not anymore.

Well done. Thank you. Will everyone who has ever forgotten to put the plug in please raise your hand?

I was thinking of buying a small boat to launch alone but now im buying a yatch hehe

Professionally done there. The only criticism I can offer is "unttached" isn't a word, it's "unattached" :)

Strong current will kick your as

Admit it guys, she is decades in front lol

Pull the plug before you put the boat on the trailer somebody told me that once 🤣🤣🤣

You're backward on the steering wheel directions (unless your hands are at the bottom of the wheel).

Why are you solo?? Damn

Helpful video!

Thanks for the “hook” tip on the tether line. duh

So where do you hook the end of the rope that’s on your boat like where on the bow do you hook it?

What do you do when there are 20 arseholes honking at you because your not a local? Lol

Awesome Video.. Great..Clear instructions!!!

Respect t for them God given royal bloodlines that your originally from
