[QUOTE="vahunter, post: 327461, member: 6815"] What I do is tie a ~20ft rope to the winch post on the trailer to the boat. Wrap the rope up in figure 8's so it doesn't tangle. Back boat in and tap brakes once it floats. Carefully drive forward with boat in the water floating (not on trailer) and take up almost all of the slack. Walk to the tie off point at the trailer, generally keeping feet dry, and pull your boat in by hand and tie it off to the dock. [/QUOTE]
