      Thanks for sharing!! I’m a big fan of mine. Plan to post a review video since I’ve used it for early 2 years now.

    Bill, at the 6:36 mark, I can see your middle rollers are not in contact with the bottom of your boat. No support in the middle of your boat. Mine did the same thing after the install of the Drotto. A little adjustment with the winch u-bolts and winch stand and the middle of my boat was supported again. Bring the bow down, you want enough weight on the rollers that you can't spin them by hand.
    As stated in the directions, unhook winch strap and chain at waters edge. I had a Trophy owner tell me that his Drotto released while backing down a bumpy boat ramp.

    Installing mine Thursday. I bought the lock latch system also. I know it just to keep a half honest thief. Away. making it a little harder to take off. And have also put up a trail camera in a tree facing my truck.

      @BandedBillOutdoors Works out pretty good no problems so far. I check it to make sure it stays tight. No problems.

    Just got mine yesterday, installing today! Hoping it's worth the 300.

    Very cool. I gotta see if this application would fit my bass tracker 170

      Did you happen to get one installed?? I’m a big fan. Keep an eye out, I’ll be doing a review video giving my thoughts after nearly 2 years of use

      It acts as a bumper and allows the front of the boat to be properly placed

      I’ve heard some have had their Drotto fail; so I’m sure that gives peace of mind
