      @@piinocchiio5730 As a kid I liked to watch the fair ground move into a grass field ready for the annual Barnet Horse Fair north of London UK. All the trucks would be second hand, a tractor unit with the generator mounted behind the cab, towing a huge double rear axle and front steering axle and behind that the showman's home trailer again steering axle up front and one rear axle.
      Amongst the tractor units would be a few Diamond T ex US army trucks, they would be used to wire winch the other stuff in if the field was slippery. Those guys would pull and twist the rides into the exact position for the fair set up.

    Seeing all those people helping that truck that almost lost it gives me hope for society. Esp with the country's current climate. But this is also Florida and people are inherently decent down there. I lived in Naples for 2 years during high school (2000-2002) and it was truly something going out boating. We'd blast out to Keewaydin pretty much every weekend. The generosity while we were out there boating was amazing. Shout out to the Burger Boat! And anyone from Naples I also want to shout out the Great Canoe Dock Race as being one of the most amazing experiences I've ever had. Literally so much effin fun. If you don't know I'm sorry, if you know then oh you know!

    Im from Minnesota. We have lots of lakes and slimy boat ramps. I've come prepared with blocks of wood with a rope attached to shove behind front and back tires to help prevent or at least slow the vehicle from going back too far!? And then yank them out fast when ready to move out?
    And also have big chunks of carpet to put in front of all four tires for extra traction -this is done during winter when cars get stuck in snow and ice. I'm actually amazed people here don't come prepared with these also. I see them digging out nowhere and dumping kitty litter. I've come to the rescue for countless people.

    That was a great save, as a boat owner I'd like to know how it happened. Nobody sets out to put the back half of their truck in the water. Not only am I a boat owner I am also a parent, I can say nearly every "what was I thinking" event in my life came when I was dealing with something having to do with my kids. When I take my boat to the ramp I either make sure my kids are on the dock where I can see them or in the boat where I can see them, tell them to stay put, so far it's worked out.
    Given the age of that truck I suggest they go ahead and have the axle, brake calipers rebuilt, chances are water got in.

      @@robwagner8337 thank you, I just couldn’t wrap my head around a boat trailer floating.

    Couple lakes by me have landing that drop right off. Depending on your trailer, it can get stuck/hooked on the concrete edge.

      I saw a guy tear a tire up on his trailer on a boat ramp that was too short.

    All the boating trouble makes you think The Drain Plug Mafia is in town. Who do you think owns all the tow boat companies ;)

    Boat ramps in PA are mud and roots at most places and i hardly see people mess up like on you're channel. Invest in a 4x4

    2 things come to mind. If your trailer floats, dont drop it in so far and let the boat weight anchor it if you need to.
    Also, why does every one with twin or trips on the back, use the wheel to steer in reverse? If the boat is set up properly, you can vary the thrust or direction of the engines, while moving backwards to keep you straight or move in a certain direction. Both of the Towboat US capts did it trying to get the bow of the boats pointed where they wanted. They both turned the engines instead of backing down on 1 engine.

    Great save!
    About the trailers floating at the ramp. Am I missing something? I've loaded my lighter boat than these at numerous different ramp angles for the past 20 years. Most of them Mississippi river ramps which are steeper than most. Unless the water is high, then its launching in the parking lots which is of course very low angle.
    What I don't get is the depth that these people on Miami Boat Ramps back their trailers to. Is it really necessary to get the trailer so deep that the boat floats all the way to the bow winch? Its that depth that is floating the trailers. Tires full of air float when fully submerged. Can't the boats be driven up on the bunks or rollers which positions the boat more precisely and keeps the trailer from floating? Maybe the motor has to be used a little to power the boat onto the last foot or two of trailer but that is a normal, isn't it? Power the boat on and/or use the winch to pull it on the last bit?
