[QUOTE="Waterwings, post: 119309, member: 123"] Dang, glad no one was hurt and the boat only rec'd minor damage. Since I semi-mastered the art of launching by myself this past summer, I try to make sure I'm at the ramp before others, because I've had some blood-pressure raising/embarrassing moments. I got the brilliant idea once to tie-off the rope to one of the rear tie-downs in the bed of the truck (tailgate down) and everything was going fine. As the boat floated out from the trailer, finally reaching the maximum length of the rope, it snagged on the trailer jack handle almost ripping it off. I don't launch that way anymore. :shock: [/QUOTE]
