For conversation sake those thar are having problems like me what boat are you running? I am in a Lund this year, and know a few other Lund owners that have similar issues. Curious to know if for whatever reason it is something particular to a Lund loading.
Single console Lund on a roller trailer... No issues but when I first got it, it did take a few times to get used to the quirks. After those were out of the way it's a snap.
I'll load up differently depending on the launch but the key is to get the thing as level as possible. On launches you use frequently get to know where those sweet spots are and if you have to angle your trailer in one way or the other. Bunks are more forgiving if your trailer is not in the water even.
Most of the time I can run the boat up a good distance on the trailer with the big motor...just get some momentum going and put it in neutral and let the momentum run you up on the trailer. From there hop out, hook the strap on and crank away. If the launch is steeper this isn't as effective and you might have to crank it farther up but big deal.
Unless I went to a glass boat I don't think I would switch away from rollers. |
