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.

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!

[@normanbirk3075]

Yup. This was painful to watch.

[@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!

[@nerdoutreachprogram5358]

I have thought about this so many times. I could go to my local public ramps and hold up a sign saying “professional trailer backing 5$” I could make a killing.

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...

[@oldshovelhead]

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.

[@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]

[@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.

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.

[@saxaphone9496]

I find it amazing that you have to do a driving test to get your car license, but not for a boat. These people are a danger to others.

[@johnsipolis]

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

[@jmt8706official]

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

[@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.

[@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.

[@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.

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. 🤦

[@duramaxadventures5832]

This is INSANE!! WOW😮

[@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.

[@kaburgess69]

Absolutely amazing.

[@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!

[@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.

[@interminablyperplexed4903]

This is how it's done. All in all, it's a pretty smooth launch. Watched it 3 times. I've seen much worse. They probably did boat prep for 4-5 hours at home in order to be this efficient. I think even the best of us could learn how to improve from this professional demo. Bout to watch again. I'm a damn liar.

[@Echris21]

RE: "The pressure's now on. You better nail it. You better nail it the first try." Years ago, my older neighbors bought a swanky ~25' camper which they towed behind their Suburban. That's a whole lot of long stuff to back up. The first time they were heading home from the campgrounds, my good neighbor called me and asked me if I wanted some free beer tonight. They'd be home by 6 and could I please back up their camper onto the pad in their driveway. Two lineup shots, and one home run onto the pad, dead center. I got a lot of free beer out of that deal over the years. :)

[@mentorofarisia371]

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

[@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.

[@david78212]

Go to an empty parking lot and practice before you make a fool of yourself at the boat ramp… no matter what, they are still going to have to pick the boat up and back on the trailer… which means they are going to have to attempt to back down the ramp. And it’s a pontoon boat on a windy day, not a good combination.
