Disclaimer : We receive a ton of emails and messages from people telling us we filmed them at the ramp this past weekend and they want to know when the video will air. This is not a question we can typically answer. We film from three or more ramps every week and have a massive back log of content and sometime it could be weeks or months after an event occurs before we air the video. We put stuff out as fast as we can but we only air three videos a week and in a typical weekend get 6-10 episodes worth of content meaning we get content faster then we can air it. Thanks for watching and just be sure to keep watching looking for your content it will air but probably not immediately after it happens!

I would like to nominate this for your end of year awards show as worst launch of the year.

[@danielmartens156]

And possibly worst video

[@markdesautels4764]

I hope to God this is their first time launching the boat. I've seen some painful boat ramp escapades, but this one absolutely takes the cake...by miles!

[@Glideslopes]

So dangerous to have people like this on the water.

[@jmcats09]

Totally agreed!! It's clear they have zero clue what's going on.....

[@nohandlehere55]

Lawn chairs, umbrella, 12 pack...entertainment for hours!

[@edwinnegron7758]

This was by far the most torturous boat departure ever!!!!

[@huntspoint3442]

It would be much easier to circle around, and get lined up straight with the ramp, before trying to back up. That’s how this ramp is designed. He is attempting a pro-level backing maneuver on his first day with a trailer.

[@toystwotease]

thanks captain obvious

[@rossevans1774]

Before they got to the ramp it was obvious that pontoon is mounted too high on that trailer. Getting it back on the trailer is going to be an even bigger problem than it was getting it off.

[@YouveBeenMiddled]

Especially now that both rear outboard bunks are gone, the starboard side inner bunk is wasted and the motor is kaput.

[@Kevin-go2dw]

My thoughts exactly. That does not look like the right trailer for the pontoon boat. Vehicle needed to be to far down the ramp even to launch. I would hate to see what is involved with recovery. Wait for high tide, float over trailer, then wait for tide to go out and drive off perhaps? Just as well it was a quiet time for others.

[@nospoon4799]

And that little bmw was over laoded.

[@dallasarnold8615]

I had to laugh every time you called that older woman in the black "young lady". I think she is the main cause of all the issues. I looked like she was trying to give bad directions.

[@jackieeastom8758]

This is almost as much fun as watching rookie truck drivers trying to bump a dock at a busy freight dock

[@patmcbride9853]

I really want to see them try to pull the boat back out.

Pat, I agree. Except that I could not watch it for two days. LOL

I'm glad I watched this on my lunch break, had I waited until after work it would've taken 3 martinis to get through it.

[@Oxnate]

Those kids running around behind the boat made me extra nervous.

[@trebors386]

People like them is why we need the Coast Guard

[@Drokandforge]

Looks like it wouldn't start at the dock cause they didn't have it in neutral. It looked like it was still engaged in reverse.

[@wizardofoz641]

just what I was thinking.

[@DonziGT230]

Imagine how well it went getting it back onto the trailer.

[@56igadget]

I doubt if that little vehicle was able to pull it out

[@DonziGT230]

@@56igadgetI have no doubt that it pulled it out fine.

[@jimbluebaugh6090]

Are we going to see them come back in. The real shame is the neon green shirt guy went and pouted instead of trying to learn something.

[@ericlewandowskivlogs]

after working at a marina for a couple of seasons, there is one thing i learned...always have a jump pack and starter fluid with you on a boat. lol

[@jmt8706official]

This new season of Gilligan's Island looks great. 🤣

[@opossom1968]

If you can not back your own boat into the water, you need not even have a boat. This is a disaster in the making. Really would like to see the rest of the story. My vote for the most painful boat launch of the year. 🤦

[@nursehemi21]

Can't imagine what might go wrong if they actually made it out to sea.

[@gardengirl318]

😂

[@61rampy65]

I *almost* felt sorry for them. But, after green shirt guy gets removed from his car, he was of less than zero help. I would say his ego was bruised, but since he had no idea how to back up, he probably hasn't much ego to begin with. Also, I wonder if there is a fuel shutoff valve somewhere between the tank and the motor? Their best bet was to leave the boat on the trailer and try to make it home.

[@gregg2732]

And when they get it home, stick a for sale sign on it!

[@61rampy65]

[@chrischapman276]

My brotha...... I'm a camp host at an RV park and watching some people come in, try this exact adventure is sometimes quite fun to watch... for only a few minutes until I do what happened here.... TAKE OVER! I just started this adventure of hosting and seeing just how many people are towing a travel trailer with absolutely N O KNOWLEDGE of ether backing, let alone towing or let's not forget HOW TO SET UP THEIR RIG!!!! Doing this host thing the first time and seeing the shit I do is baffling to me! I can't believe the shit, or should I say Ignorance and how many there are that haven't a damn clue about their RV! It's hilarious sometimes! Everything happening on this video is bringing my "Camp Host" PTSD out like a vengeance! I'm pretty sure those that have been RVing here also have a pontoon boat on the east coast!!!! LOL This is great!!!! But then again... I sometimes wonder how some people I meet are able to tie their shoes in the morning though too!!!

[@billeldon]

We sat in our campsite once and watched the folks in the next site back into a tree seven times before parking very badly. The whole time the wife just stood by and offered no assistance.

[@TerryB751]

I've never had to launch a boat coming in at a 90 degree angle from the ramp. That's just crazy. The boat ramps I've used and their access always gave plenty of room to align your vehicle and boat way before the ramp.

[@yakityakteriw6774]

Wait, that car pulled THAT boat? ? Someone needs to tell him to go opposite direction you want the boat to go. Painful to watch

[@richardredhead]

Looks like a BMW X3, rated to tow 3500#'s. That boat is probably right at the limit. Although I'd never cut it that close, this is far from the worst towing "crime" we've seen at these Florida ramps. I presume because they have no hills to deal with there, some people would think it perfectly fine to pull a 12,000# boat with that same vehicle. "Hey!, it's got a trailer hitch. What's the problem?" 🙄🙄

[@yakityakteriw6774]

@@richardredhead exactly.

[@axelfoley1406]

Yeah. I don't get people. Pulling may not be an issue, it's stopping! Scary dangerous.

[@brucesteinkamp5871]

I can't believe that little car can tow that boat safely.

[@_LVC]

Very poor choice of vehicle

[@arribaficationwineho32]

My first post and I am not a boater

[@gb9926]

We need to have boat ramp Attendants with the power to kick out people who don’t know how to launch a boat or blocking traffic. You should also be able to pay for a “ boat launch captain “ who has a lot of experience launching different types of boats. It would help the launching traffic tremendously!

[@kaburgess69]

Absolutely amazing.

[@billiebobbienorton2556]

OMG OMG OMG ! ! ! ! ! That was PAINFUL to watch

[@dadboddamien]

Saving this video so I can watch it whenever I feel a little down so I can feel better about myself.

[@swerne01]

Another entertaining day at the launch.

[@psp4150]

Best day ever......... for me sitting here watching in my chair.

[@ConcernedCitizen627]

For those without the experience. While backing a trailer turn the BOTTOM of the steering wheel in the direction you want the trailer to go. Much less confusing than turning the top the opposite direction.

[@musicmusic2566]

I wondered if the prop hit when they pulled forward and had it trimmed all the way down. This crew needs to take a boating class or two.

[@duramaxadventures5832]

This is INSANE!! WOW😮

[@bobgoing7752]

OMG LOVE THE PUBLIC RAMPS

[@MountainAdventures1]

The background music couldn't be any more perfect.

[@Patco11]

This could have been several episodes. Would love to see the loading and pulling out but figure they probably won’t find way back to dock.

[@inthelionsden6335]

"Hey we're taking the 'toon out this Saturday! Wanna come along?!!" Me: I'd rather walk on hot coals.

[@Reader-et8nf]

😂

[@joelyons3713]

If it’s this hard to launch, how are they gonna get the boat back on later?

[@danger1240]

It never crosses their minds to just ask another boater for help. I know we all feel our manhood being judged but I can respect someone honest enough to admit. "Hey there ! Would you give me a hand and guide me back? I am new at this " Most people would gladly help and you might make a new friend in the process who can teach you.

[@617Walter]

This is the most simple advice I have ever received when backing up a trailer: When you're backing up, use your sideview mirrors. If you want the trailer to "disappear" from the sideview mirror, turn the steering wheel towards that mirror.

[@mike93eh]

Always steer towards the problem side

[@kevinh5983]

I think for beginners, you tell them to put their hand at the bottom of the wheel and have them turn the wheel in the direction that you want the trailer to turn. The key is making small adjustments!

[@Seamus322]

When I first bought my boat, the best advice i got was to get some soccer cones, find an empty parking lot, and practice backing and turning- made life a lot easier...

[@cknorris3644]

Also notice the reverse lights still on at 10:13 while dude gets out of the car on the ramp. That coulda ended badly.🤣

[@FubarKen]

The circus music was appropriate 😂

[@mazi302]

I lke how she finally put the changing area down after all that.

[@ironheadjim1]

There's gonna be a fist fight before they leave the ramp

[@mentorofarisia371]

I'd like to know the boat/trailer weight compared that little BMW's towing capacity.

[@woodwerkman1]

The first clue to this being a circus is the size vehicle they are towing this boat with

[@jamesscoles859]

When you want to get out for short trip, but the Adams family gets there first....

[@willmanderscheid4236]

Ramp etiquette should be mandatory for people like this. I never understand why people show up and think the ramp/dock is the place to find and troubleshoot problems. Same with cleaning the boat. Make sure your boat is good to go before launching. If not, get out of the way. Sheeeeshhh

[@bobarmstrong3166]

This actually Hurt watching this!

[@arribaficationwineho32]

Nice to get help

[@KevinStogner-fd7tl]

I saw the motor & water pump working initially. Then the guy took over.

That was hard to watch, but hope you have video of them loading.

[@milmil6594]

i couldn't imagine hauling that big Pontoon with that little car down a freeway..Hopefully they live close because no way is that car graded to haul that kind of weight

Do we know if they came back or the ocean has got them?

[@Asgard_Chief]

[@frankzicari784]

What are they going to be like on the water.

[@mcvet57103]

That was painful to watch. Bet they drove 20 MPH all the way to the boat dock holding up traffic as they went. If you are that insecure about backing a trailer, let someone else do it.

[@lonely_trans_girl]

😂 Just found this channel and it's making me laff. 🤔 I'm not poor or stressed out enough, maybe I should finance a boat! 😂❤️

[@user-eg5qt1xf7j]

I can't help but wonder if they just left their car right there. After all, they are the only ones on the water.

[@michaelking42]

I don't think this crew had a safety kill switch lanyard, and if so, it certainly was not attached to anyone. That boat is no doubt for sale now, but the buyer has to recover it from the water. And what the hell was green shirt guy doing during that whole show???

​@@djaketech4460it's a BMW. That's the least of their issues 😂

[@djaketech4460]

@duramaxadventures5832 I was responding to the 2nd part of this guy's comment. Obviously that's the least of their issues. He states "and that car is seriously undersized to be pulling that boat!" I was responding to that section of his comment. BMWs are not notorious for their towing power. And considering that car is undersized. It's transmission would not be up to the task of the weight of the boat. That's why I said rip its transmission.

[@garychlastawa8277]

Imagine if someone invites you out on their pontoon boat and you get this...

[@JP-ou8yb]

My question is why there are so many cars without boats traveling through the boat ramp area anyway.

[@user-ze3ch2qx2o]

Place hand at bottom of steering wheel, move it the direction you want the trailer to go

[@Oldsparkey]

I hope they have a week when they want to get the boat back on the trailer since it will take them that long. I would hate to watch them back an empty trailer down the ramp , if they ever manage to do that. The loading the boat after they destroyed the bunks on the trailer. Yep , I always said you find the real fools at a boat ramp. Since the motor was running and now it's not I wounder did they check the kill switch ? We were doing a rescue ( looking for a body ) when my Lt. wanted to run the boat and could not start it. I checked the kill switch and sure as hell he disconnected it. One flip of a switch and the motor started.

[@TravE85]

Also you are accepting financial responsibility for any damage that may occur or they could blame you for something pre existing, if you just half to get involved make sure trailer tongue is properly secured and safety chain is hooked up on boat and drain plug is in, because you will get blamed and probably charged

[@mentorofarisia371]

The trailer might have been already broken. I've never owned one, but that might have contributed to the problems launching it.
