I just wanted to thank you for your great instruction! I took my first boat out today and launched it and retrieved it using the technique you showed. It worked great and made that part of my day super easy. I even had a guy at the launch ramp laughing at me and then he saw how well it worked and he didn’t laugh anymore. I can’t thank you enough! Take care Sir!
Glad it helped !! what kind of boat do you have? you can also try the drive on the trailer method. i also use the trolling motor method but you have to pull it up before it hits the trailer lol (can be risky)
Amateur boater here and your instruction videos are PRICELESS! I will always refer to them until I get comfortable doing it alone. Matter of fact, I will save this one and the docking video to my file. I would like to email you with questions I may have because Spring 2015 will be my first time doing this. I took a Coast Guard sponsored class and received a SCDNR certification but it was some things you covered which a classroom cannot properly teach.
Thank you so much :-) I will try to answer any questions that you have
After all these years, this is still the best how to solo launch on TH-cam. Came back for a refresher since I've started solo fishing again. One addition I've been doing is backing up in neutral, letting gravity guide your truck and boat to the water. That way, if the foot slips off the break, you don't accidently slam on the gas while reversing. I've found its also easier managing the trailer direction with the slower approach to the water.
thank youuuuu !!! yeah i also do the neutral roll back too.... good point !!
Good job, video. I launch a 24 ft. Center Console, often by myself. My trailer has tall guide poles in rear, which help to center boat when recovering, especially in wind. I like your idea of tying launch rope to post in front of trailer, ensuring your bow is remains centered when boat floats off. I think I could use your technique, and "skip" rope over the rear guide poles. Thanks for posting this. Appreciate your interest in helping others. You set a great example to boating/fishing people.
Great job Tony
Words to live by. Don't let the impatient people rush you.
why would anyone dislike a video like this? dudes taking up his fishing time to try to help less experienced boaters. anyways, good video tony
thanks too much!!! I'm just glad people like this video and found it helpful..... haters can go away lol
Great comment...
I've been boating for a long time and I always help people when I can. I like your video; perfect job, I'm with you all the way, take your time and do it right!
Hey, thanks for the awesome tip. Saved the day from a disaster. Launched my brand new boat the first time ever and I was with moms who can't swim and needed to hold the ropes. So I thought. First attempt, mom lets go of stern rope out of fear of the water no biggie. 2nd attempt, mom is in the water knee deep with shoes on and not letting out any slack. (mom is 73). Then I remembered your tip, "tie the rope to the trailer". Thank God no one was at the ramp till I had the boat setup right on the dock like I've done it a million times. I'v learned a ton from your videos. Cheers!
That's awesome! I am very happy that my little video could help you :-)
Just came across this video. Well done sir! Very clear explanation and I learned a new technique for getting my boat on the water! Thanks for taking the time to share this.
thank you !!!!
finally!!!!!! someone with some DAMN sense showing people how to launch a boat by yourself!!!!!
hehehehehe THANK YOU so much Eddie .... i'm glad ya liked it.... its an old video but still informative :)
@@TopwaterTony Just watched Brent Chapman's way... it was Terrible and hes a Professional Angler. SMH
I do it almost Exactly like you. I was just browsing to see if theres any tricks that I could learn. TH-cam is full of idiots claiming to have the best way to do this. I've had 7 knees surgeries and have to have two more major ones. So your way, is the best way for ol crippled up cowboys like me.
@@eddieraycantrell4633 oh man.... my knees are getting bad too... more so right now when its COLD out... well even though this is and older video i still do pretty close to this same routine... sometimes i change it... a little...
I go out alone most of the time, but I usually just back in until it floats, then take the bow strap off, put on a pull line like yours, and push the boat off the trailer. I use the pull line to beach it, or bring it to the dock depending where I'm fishing. When I load up, I beach it to the side, back my trailer in, push the boat out, and use the pull line to guide it on to my trailer, then winch it on. I never power load. Nice set up btw. I'd like to have a Power Pole or Talon, they're just so damn expensive.
The trailer and rollers on it guide you on. Why hand crank it all the way? Just line the boat up and let it drift in, then the trailer will do the work for you.
Thanks for the great info Tony. Being a new boat owner this helps a great deal.
You are welcome! Just remember to keep your cool and practice, practice practice also get your routine locked down
I’ve watched a lot of boat launch alone videos and Tony yours is the best. Easy and straight to the point. Thank you.
thank you so much Norris and thanks for watching!!
Just bought a new 2020 tracker xl boat last Saturday. First boat. This helped a lot.
I appreciate the pointers. Thank you, Sir.
AWESOME I bet you will have a lot of fun with that boat. I'm glad my video helped.... let me know how you do out there 👍
Great video Tony. . .Just got a boat after 20 years of being stuck on land. Great refresher!
I glad I could help... thanks for watching!
Best launch and load tutorials on TH-cam. Thanks Tony. Especially love how you point out the importance of leaving the winch connected until you are in the water. So many other "solo launch" videos here on TH-cam don't do that and it's just a matter of time before they experience why they should leave the boat connected to the winch.
thank you so much :)
Hey Tony, re-watching this again.THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! You are the VERY 1ST ONE to say "Don't remove the winch strap, as it could make for a very bad day!" THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! Different placing of line but whatever works for you! Your method is more representative of how we need to launch in the Pacific Northwest. I'd go on the water any day with you. Very good! Thanks!
awww man thanks so much !!!! i'm so glad this old video of mine can help you get on and off the water :)))) so how often have you used this method and how did you do?
Nice job!
I always unplug my electrical connection between trailer & truck before submersing trailer - saves blown bulbs.
John M Bonn there's no need when you have sealed lights. I've never unplugged mine
You don't have to worry about that if you convert to LED lights. they never blow.
Sounds like you need led bud
And fuses! Good catch! I do the same! Unplug guys!!!
My trailer has wings and the lights stay above water. It's 42 years old and still going. Upgrade to LED. You won't regret it.
I don’t own a boat, but would love to have one some day so I’m watching these haha! Nice video.
hehe thank you Eric !!!
Thanks Tony for taking the time to share this. I like the launch rope technique you use.
When I see an individual launching I offer to help. Sometimes they have it down well and don't need it, other times they are appreciative. You never know what you may learn.
This video helped me alot. I dont have a boat near as big as yours but I just picked it up and will be going out alot by myself. When you watch an instructional video you never know what you pick up that will help and in this case it was that long line you had connected from boat to trailer that REALLY helped me. Thanks again bro !
You're welcome! Practice makes perfect
i always say you either get out of your car and help me or shut the f**k up when launching solo with impatient people behind me. normally shuts them up. if you see someone looking clueless or having a hard time, ask if they need help. It will make it quicker for you too.
well said
Amen - no judging, just get out and politely offer to help - basic humanity!!!!
Nunaya Doxing this just made my day! I'm learning to launch my boat and I'm so nervous that people will rush me..
Tiffany Jones just take a deep breath and pretend that you're the only one there. don't worry about the people that might be there. do your own thing at your own pace
Ahh... revisiting this old video.
Offering help at a boat ramp more often than not gets a big "fuck off" response. People don't like being made to look incompetent.
The best thing to do is take responsibility for your own education and visit your local ramp during less busy times and learn how to do things correctly instead of trying to blame everyone else for your lack of skills. If you can't do things efficiently, than why are you going on the busiest times knowing full well you'll hold everyone up?
If you still ignore this advice, if you know you are incompetent and need assistance, why not take responsibility yourself to find somebody to help before you get to the ramp and make an ass of yourself and than start seeking help after the fact?
Great video! I love your line, "..boat sliding off on the concrete, that would be a bad day"...LOL!!!
LuAnn P hehe thank you!!!
believe it or not I've had one of those bad days :(
Your attaching that line to your boat and trailer was a great idea and helped me a lot today. However, I could have unhooked the bow line before I reached the launch. The boat wasn't coming off the bunks, even when I had it backed into the water! We had to actually push it off, but we got her in. The rope did help to not have my helper having to hold onto it.
When backing up a trailer, grab the steering wheel by the bottom. Moving the bottom right, will cause the trailer to go right.
redbeard2001 I will be launching a boat for
The first time tomorrow. This is a great tip! Thank you
Best tip I ever learned. Whatever direction you turn the bottom of the steering wheel is the direction your boat/trailer will go when backing up. Great tip
Thanks
If u need that advice you shouldn’t be pulling a trailer
I'm a newbie at this, and your video just gave me the confidence I needed. Thanks a lot !!
Craig r you are very welcome and thank you for watching :-) just remember to take your time as if you're the only one out there, get into a routine, and also the more you do it obviously the better you're going to get.
Craig r
Practicing during non-busy days/times really helps.
I’m going to be a first time boat owner soon. Thanks for the helpful video. Most important things I’ve seen is to make sure the plug is in and to raise your motor before launching
Great video, Tony. The rope trick is great for solo launching so I don't have to depend on my car's handbrake to hold it still while I detach.
It's a manual transmission so the only ways to keep it still are the parking brake and shutting the engine off while in gear, which I wouldn't want to do with the exhaust in the water.
This way, I can lower the boat off the bunks, pull forward until my rear end is well on land, then securely park with the engine off and exhaust well away from the water.
as long as you can do it in a decent amount of time and safely then you are winning !!
I keep watching this as a great reminder, thanks!
Very cool I'm glad that it's helping. How are you doing with your boat loading?
Good job. Nice boat. It's good to see someone who knows what they are doing at the launch.
:)
Thanks Tony. I've just bought my first little 15ft half cab for fishing and your advice has given me a lot of confidence.
You can do it it just takes practice
Great video, sweet boat... everyone make sure your rope is strong enough and not dry rotted or you will be goin swimming
Well done, I can actually launch my 230 and 300 Sea Doos at the same time with the same method, load them as well with that process in reverse. Great videos.
Thank you Scott !!!
Thanks for the video!
I always get nervous at the ramp!!!
You are the only one who has mentioned that.
Really appreciate it! !
thanks so much Debbie and good luck :)

I love yo
Thanks

Nice of you to post, thanks--just a comment or two. Often places that wire the trailer do not use the correct wire connectors, don't know if that is way your starboard trailer light is out. And there are variances that work. On mine, I learned I don't need to back down too far--I can just walk back there, walk across the trailer tongue, unhitch and climb aboard--back the boat off and put it at the temp dock. Walk back to the truck and park it--return to temp dock for boat.
Tony, thanks for the video. As a new boater, I have used this procedure step by step and it works like a charm. Good info on multiple plug checks.
Thank you so much! I'm glad my video could help you ,,,,,,, and others :-)
Great video!! I love “back up until the boat floats”. Makes it a lot easier! Thanks!
Simple is always better! Thanks so much for watching!
Thank you for the tips. I'm lucky and keep mine in a coastal marina all year, however this year I'd like to do a little touring. This video answered a lot of my questions.
What you said about not being rushed - probably the best advice for anything boat related.
thank you so much and good luck :)
Love the ATF ballcap 🤣🇺🇸 and nice boat! I’m learning on my new to me 2015 bass tracker I purchased, It has a 150 mercury 4stroke as well and very fast! I’ve taken It out once so far.
sounds like a nice boat! let me know how the learning process goes :)
Good tips Tony. Appreciate the video. Very simple and relaxed. Liked it.
thank you so much Bad Dog !!!
New boater here, just want to say thanks. I'll be keeping your tips in mind when I go out for the first time this week.
Cool good luck and let us know how Ya do !!!
Been out about half dozen times now, and your tips have helped heaps man. Thanks again, and keep up the good work.
That is awesome I'm glad that I can help thanks again for watching
@@TopwaterTony,wow, I can't believe it's been so many years already. Yours is still the best video I've seen on this topic. Thank you. I hope you're doing well, champ!
Your right side taillights on the boat trailer wasn't coming on when you apply the brakes you should get repair. Very informative video, 👌👍.
thanks for watching !!!! yeah the light was fixed years ago. now they are sealed LED's
Good Vid, I'd like to add that I have to launch at a ramp that isn't the easiest to back into so I went to my local trailer store where I bought a front hitch, which they installed for a minimum price. Now when I head to the boat launch I stop in the parking lot and connect the trailer to the front which makes pushing the trailer about a hundred times easier than backing it into the water. The time I save doing it this way more than makes up for the time it takes to disconnect the trailer from the rear hitch turn my truck and connect the trailer to the front hitch. I also use the front hitch to put my trailer into my drive way which was not possible connected to the rear hitch, there just wasn't enough street width to swing the trailer into my yard but with the front hitch there's nothing to making the trailer turn then push it into its parking space - and the up front view of where the trailer is tracking is a factor that all by itself was worth the the price of the front hitch and the time it takes to disconnect from the rear hitch, turn the truck around and reconnect to the front hitch - just saying. The only thing that I'd say about the way you launch your boat is that I've used your method of looping the connecting rope and letting it play out when the boat starts floating away from the trailer, in maybe a thousand launches over the years I've had at least 3 occasions - if not more that I don't remember - when the rope decided to tangle itself into a Gordian knot which for me anyway is one big pain in my butt. So what I did was fabricate a piece of 6 inch PVC pipe and a mount for it that slips onto the trailer tongue to which I spool my launching rope which ensures a sure fire play out of the rope. Now some may think this is a bit much but I like to have everything ready to launch when I go out by myself which makes being ready for most anything bad that happens well worth the effort it takes to prepare for my day on the water so I don't mind taking a couple of minutes in my driveway to wrap my launch safety line on that length of PVC pipe and once I've loaded my fishing gear, bate if I'm using it and anything else I might be in need of I'm ready to go - works for me.
i bought a van a long time ago that came with a hitch on the front so someone was doing it the same way as you... but with practice i bet you can do it the conventional way :)
That was terrific! I fish Lake Barkley and KY Lakes and it can be a lot of pressure just putting your boat in, especially with a bunch of people waiting. Great how to video!
Thank you so much
Tony, great job. You talk through all the proper and necessary steps. Including the small ones, especially the boat plug. ESPECIALLY the boat plug!
hehe thanks Guy!!!! im glad you liked the video.... I hope it helped a lil bit :)
Love the sweatshirt! Was a wrestler there, graduated in 2016. Great video as well, thank you.
oh very cool..... thanks for watching !!!!
You are so right about impatient people. One day I was trying to pull my boat out of a river surrounded by impatient people. My wife got the boat on the trailer, but did not hook it good enough and the boat slid back into the water. I backed the car up and jumped out to help her re-hook it up. Well my car (actually my wife's car) was still in reverse and it shot backwards down the ramp, floated a little bit, then sunk. I let the inpatients of the people make me impatient and rush . . . and you are right, serious mistakes were made! By the way, great video.
Man I'm sorry to hear that :( next time completely take your time and make sure everything you need to do is done
Don't forget to unplug the trailer lights before backing into the water! I do it when I am unhooking the safety strap at the bow. I noticed that one light was already out. And I plug it back in as I am reattaching the safety when out of the water.
I used your method with my boat, it works very well for me..thanks for the tip, and I have been using it just about two years.
Awesome !!!
I'm glad my little video helped ya 😊
Did you see my other launch/loading videos?
Thanks for the great video mate. Im booked in for a course soon to learn how to launch and retreive by myself. Video helped alot. Respect! :) ( your helping people all over the world) Have a good night.
Ryan
Thank you so much again :-) you might also enjoy my other videos on launching and receiving
You got a tail light out bud. Very helpful video. I am a complete rookie at boating. So thanks for the video.
You are welcome, good luck! !
Great videos Tony! We apparently fish the same lakes, you just do it way better than me :-) Hope to see you out on the water sometime.
Ahh cool..... Yeah we've got some decent lakes around here that's for sure. Ya know Keeping a cool head is the main thing at the ramp the rest is like second nature.
Good video, and you have a nice set-up. Being polite and thoughtful at the ramp is important, as many schmucks damage ramps and rush boaters,
Have a good/safe year of boating/fishing, pal!
Nice video & very helpful tips.
Many thanks from BAMA!!!!!!!
tony I can tell your a cool guy you don't seem full of bull enjoy your boat and always stay safe!!!
thx William, i've had my boat since 2010 and i do love it :)
I always leave the wench tied on but not in gear, just incase the boat gets away you can reel it back in, you can unhook it when your on the boat, but I do understand different ramps require different methods etc.
better safe than sorry :)
Arrrr I make my wench do all the work
@@peterlanum hehe i need one of those :)
@@peterlanum my wench like to be tied up
Im a new boat owner ...appreciate the video..well done.
This is the best video we have viewed so far on this subject.
In Minnesota, we need to keep the plugs out by law while on the road. I use a small chain hooked to the safety chain to hold the plugs; that way if I ever unclip the safety with the plugs on it; I never launch an unplugged boat.
Also wanted to add, that at least in some areas (like mine) it is technically illegal to boat alone (I'm on the ocean) because the regs say you must have one "full time lookout" and you can't both run the boat and be the full time lookout. Law or not, I don't recommend anyone go out alone, two eyes are better than one and believe in the buddy system for other reasons too. thanks again for posting, good video
You saying one person can't be in the boat alone?
Great job Tony, exactly how I launch my boat, except I disconnect my trailer lights as well in case on of my trailer lights leak, avoiding a blown fuse.
My Lund manual says to block the back tires of the truck. The blocks can be connected to the trailer with a rope. The blocks follow the truck when you drive away. That would be for steep and slick launches.
Hmm interesting
awesome video! I will definitely have to try the tow rope trick! Have never done that before
Great video!
The truth is, impatient people are usually impatient ALL the time too, hah...So nothing will make calm down.
Good video Tony. Was just checkin', that is just how I do it! Hope you catch some.
thanks buddy! Good luck this season !!!
I've never seen a power pole before, seems handy. good video. thanks
Houston Mini Trucks THANK YOU!
Best solo launch tutorial I've seen! Thanks!
Thank you so much!
Power poles are great. I'm guilty of forgetting the drain plug, but only once. That's all it takes. Great video.
Very sharp set up. I like the thing you dropped on the transom to hold the boat in pla e for you while you park your vehi le...sorry letter ( quit,,lol!
Thank you! That thing you are talking about is called a power pole Shallowater anchor
Great video.... Never launched 1 man before... but need to. Just sux the only ramp near me is a public ramp that's always very busy. It can be intimidating.
Nice simple, no bullshit tutorial. Just got my 4.9 metre cobra. Your helping people all over the world. ( Australia ) Any chance you can do a video about retreiving the boat. And a video about once the boat is off the trailer, moving the boat with roap to the jetti to tie it down?
Thanks. :)
Thank you so much :-) you know I have a couple other videos on launching in receiving the boat just scroll down and you'll see them
Here's one ...
th-cam.com/video/jJWwBOFX3lk/w-d-xo.html
I noticed one of your trailer lights are out, try unplugging the harness before dumping in...chances are that's why it's out
thanks Chris ... this topic has been addressed many times lol
this video is 6 years old. light has been fixed for years.
the lights are sealed so theres no need to unplug.
the reason the light wasnt working is the bulb kept falling from the socket.
i now have sealed LED tail lights.
many launched per year, no unplugging.
thanks for watching :))))))))
@@TopwaterTony I gotcha, I've never found a truly 100% sealed unit. I'm on the water 325 days out of the year. I've tried ever single "sealed" light on the market. They all crap out in a few months.
With that being said, what brand are you using currently?
@@chris5957 well mine has been okay so far and if they do crap out I will just replace them. But I know I've used mine all year last year and they are fine. I don't know the name brand but I know I got them from O'Reilly Auto Parts
Awesome!!!! I'm glad my video helped..... And yeah don't worry about those people just keep doing what you need to do and you'll be fine.... And of course the more you do it the better you're going to get and then we can take a look at your video :-)
Pretty smooth operator...thank U! :)
You are very welcome, good luck out there 😀
Beautiful instruction. Love your truck and boat choices. Some day!!
Thank you very much!
Tie a loop into the end of your long rope, and then use the safety strap clip to hold the loop. Much more secure than a simple knot.
also a good idea ... thanks :)
Thanks! I learned something new today. Nice boat too.
Great video! I just bought my first boat and I was hoping id stumble across a video that would show me how to launch it solo. Thanks a ton!!!
Thank you !!!! i hope it helps... practice practice !!
Very cool!! Well explained step by step, thanks man.. 😎
Thank you !!
great tips!! I need to learn all I can, so when I get my first first boat, I'll be good to go.
now that is the attitude :-) thank you very much for watching
If you have sealed trailer lights or LED trailer lights you can leave them plugged in. Back in the day when they did not have sealed boat trailer lights, the hot bulb would come into contact with the water and bust, not to mention corrosion over time. I have switched to LED lights on my boat trailer, well worth the money spent.
hi toni nice boat i wish we had extras for our boats in the uk like the pole on the back the laws in the uk are a pain you have to pay to launch your boat at most places keep up the good work thanks andy
Very good demonstration. Love your relaxed manner. Great video
I've done it so many times it's second nature
Topwater Tony yeah and its January not July when the ramp is actually in place and a dozen people are lining up on it
They have no choice but to wait. But yeah it wouldn't be a good idea to take the time to make a video at a busy ramp lol.
Great video, I no it 6 or 7 years old. But well done hope your still fishing!
yesss still fishing and i wish it would hurry up and get warm again i'm ready !!!
@@TopwaterTony Me to live live in Hardin County Tennessee. We got way to much water right now. I live down by where they had the landslide and the two houses fell in the river.
@@jasonscott5101 daaamn.... yeah I saw that on the news that is crazy all that flooding is just over the top !! SMH
Nicely done!! Greetings from the NW!!
Thank you so much :-)
You must be committed to fishing, if you're going to go out when there's snow on the ground! :D Hey, just stopped by to say, "thanks for the tips."
That's a sweet boat. That robot arm anchor thing was awesome
thank you! the power poles do come in handy :)
outstanding video!!! great job explaining it!
Thank you! :))))
very clearly presented, i liked it so much i will copy the technique. thanks!!
hey TJ thanks so much and good luck with it :)
How long is that long rope. Love your videos. I used to have someone to help me launch but lately I have been doing it myself. With winter coming this is perfect.
Jonathan Lusk hey man thanks for watching I really appreciate that :-) I think the Rope is about 25 ft and if I remember correctly I got it at Walmart
Just watching your video and saw that you are fishing caesars creek lake.
Yep yep :)
Outstanding but simple instructions. Have launched a boat several times alone.........but it has been 20 years. I needed a refresher course. Nice rig. How was the fishing?
gene q thank you!! I'm glad I could help a little bit :-) fishing was good that day thank goodness :-)
Yall make me want to get a boat now, not so easy up in the UK, he he.
Oh really? Why is that?
Thank you Tony. Awesome information here. Definitely a confidence builder vid!!!
you are very welcome, and thanks for watching :-)
Wow, pretty rare seeing someone launching a boat in January with little piles of snow here and there. Up this way (Boston) it's tough getting the boat out during that time of year but wouldn't that be nice? Good stuff.
I agree. This video was made during one of those mild winters which I definitely like those. (unlike the crazy winter we had last) I've had my boat out in the past a few times in midwinter,,,,, pretty neat
Topwater Tony Really? That's amazing because it's tough (close to impossible) to take our boat out during the winter up this way in Boston. It just gets too damn cold and you have the potential of all kinds of stuff freezing up. It sucks, too, because while we do get all 4 seasons in full blast so we do enjoy that variety, our summers are literally about 3 months long and that's it! Unless you enjoy boating in the fall (which luckily I do but my wife can't stand it) then that's all you really get for good, warm, boating weather. Of course sometimes you get an early, warm spring that extends that a bit, but those are far and few between. Need to move to Florida.
Every once in a while I'll launch my boat solo, but a 28 footer is tough, I tell ya, but a 5/8ths line tied off one of the bow cleat and hitched around the trailer post does wonders, but only on a bunk style trailer and not a roller. A roller would send the boat across the pond to the UK lol. Cheers.
LOL I like that roller comment hehe..... I can't stand winter at all !!!! I would like it to be in the 70's all year long :) and I pray that the upcoming winters aren't bad ones.
Nice job, one thing you forgot to do is unplug your trailer wires from the tow vehicle before putting the trailer in the water. It prevents the hot light bulbs from bursting when suddenly cooled by the water. Of course if you have sealed LED's you can skip that step, but it still doesn't hurt.
Yes mine are sealed it's my old wiring thats kind of jacked up
Thanks for sharing I've yet to use my boat just got one two weeks ago
cool !!! just take your time and you'll be ok :)
I'm right with ya I don't drink do drugs but I am addicted to one thing.... FISHING!!
big ron yep.... just say NO :)
Great vid and like the power pole and the ratchet straps :-)
Thank you!
Thanks I needed this lesson 🙃👍
You are very welcome.
Good luck out there 😃
I don't know why I watched this.. I don't have a boat or go on friends' boats with any regularity. But it was really interesting!
