Beach Launching Made Easy Tutorial

[@NSGTX]

Cheers Greg, good tutorial. It’s daunting thinking about how to do this when you’ve never done it before, I can see now it’s alot easier than you would think.

[@morganaltoft7149]

Great tip about pulling the trailer out by the winch strap never thought of that thanks

[@MER1CA_1st]

Great tutorial, much appreciated; will definitely try. Thanks

[@alloutofdonuts3998]

I was FF’ing a lot thru this but that’s bcuz I was watching tv at the same time lol. I don’t have a PWC but when I do this knowledge will come in handy so thanks 🙏!

[@shaneburgin4880]

[@davejellybean]

Brilliant tip about towing out with the strap...cheers greg...

[@keithbolger5661]

Brilliant tutorial. Thanks for taking the time matey

[@chrismcconkey1919]

Great little tip there to use the winch strap to pull the empty trailer 👍

[@Axel-zq7ig]

[@AlexHools]

Thanks mate! you have a great one!

[@tokyojapan4347]

Great work !!

[@CP-kb1du]

Job well done mate great detail no Mucking about straight Beans

[@juanchiquet1110]

GREAT VIDEO¡ BUT I WANT TO KNOW HOW YOU TAKE DEEP ENOUGH TO TURN THE MOTOR ON, AND HOW YOU TAKE THE JETSKY TO THE SHORE WITH THW MOTOR OFF SOTHE MOTOR DOES NOT TAKE SAND AND DEBRIS IN THE WATER INTAKE

[@gregmarthabutler]

Ye its difficult on such a shallow beach, but once off the trailer you can push it further out, being careful of surroundings and whats underfoot, a slightly steeper beach would be better but nature is nature. I usually, push the ski out to just over knee height and then jump on and start up at idle, this will reduce the risk of picking anything up until its deep enough, usually in the uk at least you cant go more than 4knots within approx 50-100mtrs (this varies) due to swimming areas. Its all about minimising sand intake, you can only do so much, or else its swim out and maybe put yourself in danger. Simply dont come near the beach with too much much throttle. Always wash the ski out after use. Hope this helps

[@shotbychristo]

Interesting. Thanks for sharing 👍

[@Stonkslayer]

Awesome video! Well presented and thank you 👍🏾

[@tinkletheivory]

Winner! Now show us how to launch Thunderbird 3

[@harrisonmcleod6685]

Great video. With heavier jetskis and boats, you can snatch the trailer out with a line attached to the back of your car. You tow out on an angle to lever the trailer wheels out of the sand which they've sunk into.

[@gregmarthabutler]

You can indeed of course 🙌

[@tgoodman3282]

Can you do this with a big three seater? GTX seadoo?

[@gregmarthabutler]

Yes i had a 2018 gtx 300 no problem

[@andrewc9247]

Nice vid but I’d like to see him do it with a double jetski trailer

[@Gman-70mmy]

Robert owen just won seadoo dealer of the year

[@gregmarthabutler]

Gman ye its fantastic news, great guys all of them 👍

[@agustinchamorro96]

Great video! Mega helpful!! Cheers

[@user-hd8ej8yx9p]

What's the third wheel up front called? we don't have that in the US

[@gregmarthabutler]

We call it a jockey wheel you may call it a winder/stabiliser wheel iv not noticed that across the pond 🙃

[@user-hd8ej8yx9p]

@@gregmarthabutler I'm ordering one from a UK Amazon supplier, should be here in a few weeks. For some reason, in the US, all the options we have a either a single or double jockey wheel that is quite skinny and hard plastic (or resin) and just sinks into sand, only meant to maneuver on concrete. There are no boat ramps where i go in Mexico, so i need to launch my pwc attached to my truck or get a proper jockey wheel to hand launch it off the shore.

[@davejellybean]

Very, very good but how about check the ski starts before launching...

[@gregmarthabutler]

PapaRa Jellybean this is something i will be sure to put in another video for sure in the future, glad you liked the video 👍

[@davejellybean]

yes Greg...we were at Rhosneigr as usual a few weeks back and these guys launched and the ski wouldnt start...We always start the ski before we hitch up and then again on the beach.....hopefully thats enough.....see you somewhere sometime....

[@dzlife8064]

Good job

[@aklsearider6725]

Hey Greg, very good vid. Mind if we embed it on our site?

[@gregmarthabutler]

AKLSeaRider ye dont see why not ✌️ thank you 👍

[@4toes1nose]

Oh I like the way you edit out the part where the intake got pulled through the sand , putting sand into your intake will Damage your JetSki

[@gregmarthabutler]

This has never been an issue for me, i understand what you are saying but by the time its shaken about on the trailer and been washed out, its not effecting much at all, however its different for everyone of course, nothing has been hidden 🙌

[@rlj19876]

Anybody know the best beaches to legally launch from in cornwall?

[@gregmarthabutler]

Thats something id like to know myself, really would like to go explore down there ✌️

[@fitzpotful]

Don’t know of any on the north Cornish coast, best bet is south coast, ones I’ve launched from…. Fowey , Falmouth, saltash and a few places in Plymouth (out to sea, turn right…Cornish coast )

[@Luis-ru8jr]

thx mate

My beach is stone is there away around this

Get video mate any change you could give me the location for this area

[@gregmarthabutler]

Black Rock Sands Porthmadog, north West Wales

@@gregmarthabutler they a specific part mate

[@gregmarthabutler]

@@michaelboland2834 as you go on to the beach, the wardens will explain where the launch area is. I think this is what you mean? ha. There is a fee for launching but hasnt been released yet for next season but usually is £15 a day or £150 for a years pass. Thanks for watching

[@StandWithRussia]

Great now try it on seadoo RXT IS like that. And i will watch you do it. Haha

[@gregmarthabutler]

DIY MAN i will video it with mine 😜

[@StandWithRussia]

@@gregmarthabutler the reason i said that because i have one and it weighs as much as small car. Lol

[@gregmarthabutler]

DIY MAN i have a GTX LTD, it is worth having the wide wheeled trailer for sure, makes it much easier 👍

[@trvman1]

Yes, on the East Coast here in NC and SC your trailer would sink into the sand before you got it anywhere near the water. My ski weighs 800lbs plus the trailer weight.

[@HeartLimits]

Awesome content my fellow nosmallcreator!!! keep creating, keep the vids comin!!! supporting yah!!!

[@gregmarthabutler]

Heart Limits thank you sir 😜

[@JR_GAMING_]

Love the seadoo spark mate

[@jakedivarano7097]

Best seadoo on the market in terms to fun.. Such a blast to ride

[@jerrybow8779]

My 6yo daughter loves her spark, you boys should try the RXT OR RXP

[@cobyjohnson7311]

Maybe do a bigger ski?

[@gregmarthabutler]

I do this technique will all skis, yes it can be easier with two people launching bigger skis, however i launch a Seadoo GTX no problem. One thing i can really recommend for beach launching is wider trailer wheels and an inflatable jockey to reduce sinking in the sand 👍 Thanks for watching ✌️

[@simonbevan7581]

I don’t even have a jet ski but want one

[@jj8526]

Get in.....🤣👏👏☘

[@alien4fish]

GREAT..... Now I gotta buy a jet ski....

"Do not put your car in to salt water" bwahahaha come to Canada where we ride our cars in salt brine for 6 months of the year, every year.

[@Asimo44]

And they rust right?

[@dominiclobaza1752]

Why not just use a boat launch

[@gregmarthabutler]

You can of course but in britain there isnt many on the beaches

[@michelrodrigues110]

Whales, yeah. I see many of them

[@NUFC2412]

No chance of recovering say a SHO on your own. To heavy. Trailer will sink. Plus to recover onto a trailer from beached position

[@gregmarthabutler]

It may be worth looking at the wide wheels for your trailer as they don't sink half as quick, I have a seafood GTX big ski and they really help.

[@NUFC2412]

@@gregmarthabutler i have already and trust me. 😂. Odd time ive had to luckily only short pull to soft and it just sinks. Ski is cruiser and just far to heavy

[@slabcharger7162]

Worst launch! Get close to water, disconnect the winch strap.reverse with steady speed until trailor hits water(even better if a little wave is timed.slam on brakes, ski slides off , minimal salt water exposure to car too. To have a beach that isn't extremely boggy in Australia is rare, no way your pulling that trailor by hand, with a ski on it would take 20 men. Even a good 4x4 with tyres deflated can struggle

[@josephdyer1298]

lol ive been there
