    Great job - hard to find a video where no prior knowledge is assumed!

    Thank you! I especially appreciate that you had no camera or helper. I am about to take an old van and connect it to a trailer by myself for my first try. I was getting very stressed out watching videos of big fishermen with fancy trucks and all the fancy gadgets do it so easily. This was so much better! Wish me luck.

    Nice video. Those tennis balls on a telescoping rod with a magnetic base worked good for me when hooking up. I would even use them when I had a helper.

You are THE MAN! 💪🏽… As a new FEMALE boat owner, like you, I’ve never hitched a boat (or anything else for that matter) 😂… this video is so straight to the point and easy to understand, as are many of your videos.

    Most, ball latches have a nut under the " tab " assembly to adjust for a 2" or 1⅞ " ball. Keep up the good work. :)

    Great video Wayne. I'm a first time boat/trailer owner and this was very helpful going over all of the basics! Now I just need to figure out how to get my boat on it!!

    Real people boat with common how too’s .. Tnx Mr. Good job on your presentation! I have to backup my trailer and boat into steep driveway into my garage, it comes with a whole bunch of other issues.. but I see we’re doing the same thing. I also work with a jack when I’m inches off the floor.

    Excellent video for a DIY er like me. Most boat owners want to hook it up, and expect an assistant to be knowledgeable. But it can be a challenge.

    My Pop always said keep a 2 x 4 cut to fit under your trailer so all the weight is resting on your wheel once you're done for the day.

      Your Pop = A wise man! Yeah when I am parked for good I always have a board under the leg or wheel at the front.

    I hate it when a trailer comes apart from the truck.
