Hit The Dock Then Sped Off!! | Miami Boat Ramps | Boynton Beach

Good one! The people at 5:30 already out of water came out crooked also. 😂

[@jeffrandolf5673]

I have found only a few things as enjoyable on YT as watching boat ramps launching. It really shows just how many people are clueless of simple basic things like having your dock lines & fenders out BEFORE you land on the dock or using the dock cleats/pilings to help in controlling boat momentum. (yes, I'm perfect😉) I too have struggled when alone against a strong current & wind: take a wrap on a cleat/piling with a bow or spring line & back down on it.. LibsOfTikTok is 2nd. lol

Guide posts... Need to set them against the side of the boat when it’s on the trailer so when you load it actually “guides” the boat where it needs to be on the trailer 😉 They need to be at least 2’ higher that the run rail when the boats loading in the water.

[@dougshirley3460]

It never ceases to amaze. They have boats worth tens of thousands, some hundreds of thousands, but not a clue of how to run them, They approach a dock with zero preparation. No lines ready, no fenders ready, never heard of the most important line to get ashore first, the spring line. Most seem not to have a clue as to how much trailer needs to be in the water. Either too little or too deep. Never heard of using the power of the boat to help get moving on a slippery ramp.

That seadoo rig was called the wave boat they were made by a third-party company I thought it was a great idea in theory that never really caught on when I lived on the river I had a neighbor who had one it really was a blast to operate Basically the selling point was you could take the JetSki out by yourself and rip some wakes or if you had company attach it to the wave boat

[@chuckcts-v3460]

What I would do is take 2 large buckets to fill with some sand when returning to the ramp. Get the boat on the trailer and dump each bucket in line with the rear tire to give some grip on the ramp. Might not work but I sure would give it a try.

The Wave Boat is a cool concept but I think if I'm on the water with several people I'd rather have a self powered boat and a ski if I'm going to spend the money in the 1st place. The good part is that you can get this down on one trailer, boat to a nice location, drop anchor, do some fishing on the boat in the morning, rip on the ski in the afternoon, eat a late lunch and maybe take a nap.

Just a question because most people here know quite a few things about boats an trailers: how bad is it for a boat to be a little oblique on a trailer? In my case on a boat 'lift'. The width of where the boat is going will be a few centimeters too small on the left side. But it would fit if the boat would be a little oblique on the lift that keeps it out of the water. Anyone any idea if this is bad for the boat? Let me know!

[@PauliG]

If your boat is floating on the trailer, you are too deep! No need to swamp it.

Wonder if throwing some sand or kitty litter would give you enough traction to get out. Would be easy enough to keep in the back of your vehicle for situations like this.

[@pulaski1]

That's a line of seaweed (marine algae), and it would take a ton of sandy or kitty litter to make any difference. ..... What they need is a garden rake to remove the seaweed - it would only take a couple of minutes on each ramp and the problem would be resolved for the rest of the day, until the tide comes in and starts to go back out again.
