I guess I'll be the one to say it. When you power on like that. Not only do you move the sand from the bottom of the lake away from the launch ramp. You also risk ingesting sand or rocks into your intake which can definitely damage your impeller. Had you backed the trailer in one foot more your boat would have floated right on the trailer. And it would have set perfectly. Best of luck with your new boat great looking Jeep happy boating and be safe out there and have fun.

Thank you for the feedback, those are some good point. I have tried lowering the trailer more in the water, the issue is the current is way to strong and the boat drifts away. What I found works the best specially when I’m by my self is to park the Jeep next to the ramp close as possible and use two lines (front and bank) and walk the boat into the trailer. Then use the trailer ratchet to pull in the rest.

To add to that per yamaha this guy pretty much launched and loaded by the book. The trailer winch is not designed to winch the boat onto the trailer, it’s meant to be power loaded. I can attest to the currents as well. I’m on the gulf and some ramps have way more current from the tidal changes than others. If you are just a hair to deep you will be jackknifed in no time. Happens all the time and it’s a huge mess just watching people trying to get the trailer out of that situation when it’s smashed up against the dock and the current just fights you every step.
@SurgeWorld Жыл бұрын
I agree. Need to have full control over the boat, our currents can get super bad specially towards the end of the day. And next thing you know your boat is smashing into the dock or worse case into someone’s 300k boat 😂

Here in Florida a few do's/don'ts at the ramp: Don't create wake near the ramp, don't back down the middle of the ramp, do remove your bow strap before backing down the ramp, do cleat off a dock line to hold the boat, do a last-minute check of hull plugs and clean out plug, do be careful jumping on trailer tongue and winch as everything is super slippery here and gets on your shoes (flip-flops). I have seen people take some nasty falls crawling up from the bow, we normally go up the wheel well or install steps to the trailer tongue. These are ALL lessons I have learned the hard way with my Yamaha 195 Sport FSH and self-launching is no joke. Great job backing straight in and re-loading!

Thank you, yes I would say everything you mentioned is about the same here in northwest Washington during busy season. If you notice I’m the only boat on the ramp and in the water. During busy times specially on the weekends the ramp is completely full and it’s a different story. I did find a better way to launch the boat by myself, will make a video soon. Basically placing the trailer with the boat close as possible to the ramp, and using front and back boat lines to pull the boat off and on the trailer, then securing the boat to the ramp, then I park. The only issue with that method is the availability on the side ramp, basically when standing in vehicle line to launch the boat you have to make sure to get the spot with the ramp, and there is 4 stops. Two middle spots are wide open just like you see in this video.

Lol thank you! The key is to go out and practice for a bit. I was a bit intimidated my first time at first. Remember when loading the boat back on the trailer get those boat-rails completely wet and have them stick out about a foot!
I have this exact boat and trailer. I back mine into the water so the water is at the top of the fenders. If you do that, you will have an easier launch.

Oh ok, for some reason I thought different types of rigs would make the difference. I did notice when the fenders are submerged then loading the boat is much more difficult specially when there is a current, because the boat wants to drift away.

@@SurgeWorld they type of tow vehicle shouldn't make a difference if the trailer is level when on flat ground. My first outing when I attempted to load the boat, the front roller was higher than the navigation light on the boat, and I had to back down significantly to get the boat on the trailer correctly. User error. I have a hitch with adjustable height and it was set for something else. Lowering the hitch corrected the issue.

Do you have to turn on the bilge or blower before starting it ? Anything to check for before launching? New Yamaha boat owner here TIA
@SurgeWorld2 жыл бұрын
While on the parking lot, turn on the battery, turn on the blower to check that it runs, get everything setup, life jackets, store away stuff, and always double check the drain plugs. While backing up the boat, turn on the blower, i believe blower has to be on and running for like it least 30 seconds before boat can start. Main thing is always double check the drain plugs!! The person who drives the vehicle will undo the trailer/boat tow ranch, once that’s lose before the security rope/strap gets lose the boat driver will start the boat. Don’t want to cut the boat loose and not be able to start the boat. Once the boat fires up, then the final security strap gets loose and the boat can back up while the driver parks the vehicle. I found much easier to launch the boat using front and back ropes when I’m next to the ramps side walk, then I walk the boat as far as possible, secure the boat. Part the Jeep, get back to the boat, start the blower, undo the ropes and drive off. Reason I like this method much better is because I’m not in a hurry, I can take time and I don’t have to stress with someone helping me ether with backing up or the boat, unless I’m with someone who knows how to backup. Last thing I want is to be stressed out and in a hurry.

Are these boats heavy on gas and also is this a good boat for someone who has no experience?
@SurgeWorld6 ай бұрын
No experience yes! Absolutely, this was my first boat on Columbia river with no boat experience. At first couple of weeks it was a learning curve for sure, once I figured out few tricks like what kind of anchor to use and how to tie ropes this boat turned out to be amazing. Definitely for the money, I would say this boat is bullet proof. Yamaha definitely put allot of energy and engineering behind this model. Now on the gas, I would say it’s okay from the sounds of it compared to prop motors. Overall extremely happy with the boat. Never had any issues. I would recommend getting supercharged like my, top speed is 55 to 60 mph.

How is the braking? 37s on my rubicon braking isn’t great without a boat.
@SurgeWorld Жыл бұрын
Breaking is really good, I haven’t noticed any difference at all. The trailer has its own breaks, called a (hydraulic surge breaks) they activate automatically whenever the driver slows the tow vehicle. Boat trailers with surge brakes can often be submerged in water when boats are being retrieved and launched, causing premature corrosion on the components of electric brakes. Surge brakes require no setup or knowledge of the braking system to operate, no electric controller or special wiring, and can be submerged in water.

I would say 3 to 5mpr. Key is to keep steady speed all the way otherwise the boat will start drifting with water current and you'll be all over the place. Have the boat ramps stick out about 12" and you'll be fine even if going to fast. Practice the more you practice the better you'll get.
