    Disclaimer : We receive a ton of emails and messages from people telling us we filmed them at the ramp this past weekend and they want to know when the video will air. This is not a question we can typically answer. We film from three or more ramps every week and have a massive back log of content and sometime it could be weeks or months after an event occurs before we air the video. We put stuff out as fast as we can but we only air three videos a week and in a typical weekend get 6-10 episodes worth of content meaning we get content faster then we can air it. Thanks for watching and just be sure to keep watching looking for your content it will air but probably not immediately after it happens!

      The customer has to pay attention. The RV industry has a similar problem. The customer is too busy looking at the shiny new thing to pay attention. On early trips, the people spend hours trying to get hookups working or the rig level. My local dealer has told me every call they get after a new purchase was covered in the walkthrough or is in the owners manual.

    I've shown guys that didn't know how to use a ratchet strap how to undo them and how to tighten them etc. I tell them the things are tricky just so they don't feel embarrassed. They become instant pro's at it and are so grateful for being shown how to work something. The dealer taking the time to show how to operate the winch, straps, fenders and tie off to a cleat along with a ton of other tips and tricks will guarantee a returning customer.

      I've been using ratchet straps every day for a very long time. I still have problems using them sometimes. If you have never used a boat winch when it is under all that weight of the boat, it can seem impossible. Gotta tighten it just a little to release the latch.

In todays day in age there is not reason to not do so. There are plenty of instructional videos out there on the right and wrong way to do things. Even if you are brand new you take your trailer out to a parking lot somewhere and practice backing up. The boat ramp is not the place to experiment. There is a staging area at the boat ramp for a reason so use it. How hard is that?

      @rcl3514 10 місяців тому

      @Woot30 It's not that hard. Practice in a lot on driving and backing. Like a school after hours or a church. Put a long bow line on your boat, and wrap it around the winch stand, so you have something to control your boat with once its floating. When your coming back to the dock, use the wind and current tonyour advantage. Take the boat out of gear, and see which way you drift. Use that to determine which side to dock on so it pushes you into the dock and not away from it. Then bump the boat into and out of gear until your at the dock.

  • @robertgill448
    @robertgill448 11 місяців тому +20

    When I bought my new boat, first one, while I waited for it to be built I took the required boating course, looked at countless videos on boating, boats, explanations, docking, boat ramps, maintenance, safety, just over and over again. As a solo boater also learned how to unload boat by myself with lines. Never had this guys problem. I stage my boat in the staging area of the parking lot before approaching the ramps. It pays a lot to have a 4X4 with rear view cameras 👍🏻. If you are a NEW boater, take my advice, get off the porn-sites and onto this channel and all the boating channels. Three years now and I still learn something NEW at every boat outing. I do hope you captured their return trip so we can see the retrieval part. Thanks for the education.

    Then you get the capt in the boat, or whoever you want to take it off the trailer and start the engine, make sure it's not leaking, etc. Then just back it off the trailer and then the driver takes it to the parking lot.

    This is, like, one of my nightmares. I do appreciate how the top comments on this thread are all of the "This guy was failed by his dealer" or "Yep, I've been there" variety. A little empathy goes a long way. :)

    Undo Straps At Beginning Of Ramp, Undo Bow Hook, Have Ropes To Adults On Pier Walk Down While Backing, While Boat & Trailer Reaching Into Water At Good Depth, Almost Back Of Car At Water Level, Slam On Brakes.
    Boat Will Roll Off, People On Pier Can Then Pull Ropes With Boat Towards Pier. While Car/Truck Pulls Forward & Parks.

    They will get better, me and my wife met in September of 84 and now we go on the withlacoochee twice a week with my surface drive and three times a week on the golf with my Boston Whaler and we can launch both boats in under sixty seconds from the time we enter the ramp area.

    I used to live on a boat, I've sailed boats from VA to FL, helped out the guy that owned the local Boat US service and could go on for hours about the things I've seen on the water and at the docks.
    Just to name a few.
    Guy was ran over by his truck when he left it in reverse and the whole truck went under water.
    Someone tried filling the boat with gas and instead used the pump out fixture.
    Leaving the two rear straps still attached holding the stearn to the trailer and running the boat wide open in reverse wondering why it's not moving.
    Boat US gets a call from someone hard aground at the the Hole In the Wall on Gwynn's Island VA in a 40' sailboat with a 6' solid keel.
    No one in there right mind would have ever tried this approach, on a good day at MHT it's only 4', it's a Z pattern, and the markers switch 1/2 way through.

    I can't help but feel for this guy. Obviously a new boater since he couldn't figure out the straps. What he should have done was practice all those things in his driveway, watch some YT videos and then go to the ramp. Having said that, I have experienced the straps that have been put on so aggressively by someone with ridiculous strength, that it took me and a flat-head screwdriver five minutes to loosen. Worse still, the straps were twisted, making it a total brain operation.

      Kind sorta, the problem is, that you have to know about it, and look for it, to be able to take it. I took one when I was10 or 11. It was a 20 or 30 hour class from the local Coast Guard Aux. 2 or 3 hours a night, 1 night a week. Taught me the basics in everything from knot tying, to navigation, safety, to buoy reading......

    Always amazed how people don't have there boat ready before there at the ramp. Have to undo straps put coolers in the boat and other items. Then they put it in the water. Last week took my boat to local ramp and this family took 30min to put everything in there will it was at ramp, unbelievable😒

  • @jamess3532
    @jamess3532 11 місяців тому +2

    We were all newbies at one point but a little common sense goes a long way and it looks like this guy didn't bother to do any research before going to the boat ramp. Had he done his research he would have known to have the boat loaded and fully prepped to launch prior to backing it up. I hope he's safe on the water but if he didn't even bother to learn the basics of launching a boat I doubt he's prepared to safely operate and navigate his boat on the water.
