[QUOTE="JL8Jeff, post: 486032, member: 12995"] Our ramp drops off at a certain point and is very flat in one section so the unloading/loading all depends on the water level of the river. I always wear boat shoes and walk it off/back on regardless of how cold the water is. I did it one year in Feb when the water temp was around 34 degrees and the air was in the 60's for a couple of days. I should probably buy some tall boots, but I don't usually take the boat out in cold weather (less than 60 degrees) so getting my feet wet is not that big of a deal. I've never backed a boat off the trailer by letting it float loose on its own. Probably because the current would swing the boat around and put it in a bad spot before you could get out of the vehicle. [/QUOTE]
