Too many instructional videos fail to give detail in their projects.You take the time and trouble to detail every project you undertake and i find that very beneficial. You have given me the confidence to tackle the restoration of my 30ft carvel built bermudan sloop which i am thoroughly enjoying thanks to your excellent tuition.
It's just so nice to see something like this explained so nicely. Thank you so much for posting.
Pretty much how I do things, but good to know I'm not too far out of line.
This video was 10 yrs old when I replied, so it stands the test of time and helping folks.
Nice simple safe one step at a time. Been doing that with my Albin 32+2 for a number of years. A bit unnerving the first time you do it but piece of cake after second or third time. The only part missed is to make sure that bow is raised high enough for rain drainage. Nothing like having a boat sink on land.
I really needed this information. Thank you so much for posting it.
I always thought looking at the screw jacks that it would be much safer if there were a ratchet strap or something running between them so they couldnt slip out. Was born and raised just outside Worcester MA. Its so awesome watching your videos. Feels like home again.
Yes i do all mine that way!
Quite nice, thank you good sir for sharing these safe and effective ways, patience is the virtue that spares calamity.
Best video on this process that I've seen. Nicely done.
That video very clearly explains a procedure that can be dangerous if not done right. I have done the very same process with a 4 ton, fixed keel sailboat. Because of the keel, there was less stability. Any time I was under the boat, my most trusted assistant stood with his fingertips on the side of the boat, ready to warn me if anything went wrong. It never did. I have seen the wheels removed from the trailer and replaced with bare rims, and the trailer rolled out on bare rims, when clearance was a problem.
Nice boat. F. L. Tripp & Sons was my home yard as a pup. I used to watch the old salts as they put these boats together. 50 years by now..
Very experienced & well explained, not a 1-2 on/off situation
Have watched many of your videos. Very informative and presented in a very easy to understand format. It has helped me more than you know. Thanks a million!! Keep up the good work.
Well done. I pulled a 21 foot boat off a trailer many years ago the very same way. Getting the boat back ON the trailer is the real challenge - same thing in reverse.
CharlieP - I found maneuvering the trailer back under the boat, by hand, made it just as "easy" as taking the trailer out.
Great Info and videos Louis. Well Done
That's called old school use what you can 101. Great work.
Very very nice work as always!!!👌💯👍
This is a great video, I was looking for exactly thing kind of information to stop me from trying to do it myself.
Those Long trailers were made in my home town! Interesting to see one on you tube.
We are learning a lot, thank you God Bless you
Beautiful boat
Awesome info, thank you Sir!!
Thanks nice to see a pro at work.
great information thank you for the video, what a beautiful hull.
Sailor for 50 years. This guy knows what he's doing!
Very helpful. Thank you!
A great instruction.... many thanks
Nice job, well done!
This was always the most nerve-wracking part of the job when I did this kind of stuff over 20 years ago. It always looks so strange to me balancing up like that. Then I got to climb underneath and work on it. then jump up inside and sleep in it. LOL
you should also put chains between your stands, especially those forward two because they are likely to push away from the hull if anybody is moving around on-board. The Brownell powerboat stands you used should have key holes for 3/16 chain on the flat top heads.
Thanks Aaron, great idea about using chains. It would seem to be much safer with them! One can not be too safe when planning to work under a thousand pound boat, which is what mine weighs. Actually this one in the video is probably a bit larger and heavier. So much more the reason.
Sweet, I am about to take my Sea Runner Trimaran's main hull off its trailer, and while I have done it before, you have some refinements I can use.
Well done,thanks!
Nice Job!
excellent job.
gonna use this! Thanks
That’s a great video very well explain but the only issue I have I have a World cat catamaran I still haven’t found any videos on how to Properly remove it from the trailer onto stands
Great job, thank you.
Masterful.
That went easy and safely to get the boat off the trailer.
The boat you’re working on is very interesting. Can we see the whole boat. Seems to have a built in lift chine. Looks like it would be a nice Bass boat.
a few tips,
instead if using backstands on the midship-bow, get two 3" stands, along with some 5inch by 5inch wood chips to go underneath the stands.
also, the midship-bow stand toppers should be horizontal instead of vertical, so the topper doesnt snap on the top.
other then that, very good video!!!
-from someone who does this all day
Another idea to help might be to shift your chocks forward in front of the wheels instead of removing them completely, and then if the driving forward didn't quite go to plan the chocks would stop the trailer before the centre jacks got knocked over. Great job tho!
That's a proven method with all sorts of trailers. Another is a chock in front of the pulling vehicle drivers side front tire.
Even better, unhitch truck and roll out by hand.
@@alnov91 Yeah... that makes much more sense! You don't need the power of a truck to move an unloaded trailer that size.
Good video!👍🏻
great video. any tips on used hydraulic boat trailers? been hauling cars for too long. would like to get into boats.
Did this with my 19' Potter that was in the driveway, not connected to the truck. Think it made it easier to lower the trailer's jack, thereby raising the stern, before placing the jackstands under the stern.
PRO....!! sweet boat!!
Very nice job. Well done. Good video.
Good Video, Thanks
Nice video sir.
I wouldn't attempt this w/o Louis at my side, or someone with his experience, at least for the first time. Kind of amazing that it is possible at all. What kind of boat is that? It has pretty lines ( for a motor boat ) any chance we can get Louis to show this trick using, say, a 30' sailboat?
The other thing to mention is to ensure your trailer tires are properly inflated before doing this. Most likely since it will be several days or weeks till the boat goes back on, you may service the trailer and tires the height of the trailer might change.
Do you use connecting chains on the fore and aft stands for added security incase they were to kick out?
You made it look easy Cap
I recently picked up a 1989 SeaRay 340 sundancer but wont have a trailer till spring, but my friend with a 33 foot thompson has a trailer. Any ideas on how i could use this technique to put it on styrofoam for winter?
Cant do that with Chinese Stands.....Brownell is the KEY
You're a braver man than I.
Wow!, whats the bow being held by? Seems the boat is almost balanced on the forward jacks! At 6:14, it looks tipping ...
I would measure from the jack to the next crossmember on the trailer then put a chock on the ground that amount infront of the wheel then you cant knock the jack over whenyou pull forward.
Nice. Now i just need a boat
How would you go about doing this with a 70s 28 foot Luhrs ? 6 ton 11 ft beam
Is it necessary to maintain the hull in a level position? I didn't see any attention paid to keeping port and starboard at the same height - or maybe he just selected level ground
Excellent! How about the reverse? How easily can the boat be put back onto the trailer?
Watch the video backwards
The opposite jack stands should be chained together to keep the stands from kicking out...standard practice
+Peter Milley I believe Mr Sauzedde said and showed he angled the pop-it stands inboard to keep them from kicking out. I've never seen this in the yards I roam but I believe it's probably more secure being angled. But it's more fiddly then just attaching chains and hired yards tend to go the path of least resistance.
While chain can rust, wood can rot or be eaten buy bugs, or sink in mud ect. I think chain isn't just the easiest. But I suspect it's more of a OSHA thing, a chain is definitely more secure chained together it can hold the stands under the boat. In Marina's some times boats sit on stands for years alot can happen to pine in a few years. All that said I held up a 19footer with wood, concrete cinder blocks. And one bottle Jack to do the lifts
surprisingly chains weren't used under the hull to connect one stand with the other.. stability
Well done, Lou and crew. To be honest, even with an old salty pro bracing it up, I would still be nervous getting under it, but not as nervous as climbing my 240+ pound self up into the boat. I sure it would be fine, but I've seen how much a boat rocks from me stepping off a dock onto it, I know it's supported on both sides, but I'd still be nervous.
There should be a chain between the front poppets so they can't kick out
What make and model and year is that boat??? Anybody
how much does that boat weigh?
How can I do this in a barn
Be just as easy to drown myself . Lol 😂 lord have mercy . Masterclass (I’ve never had a license or had a boat lol ) new to me . Just keep the boat on the trailer mr bean or Lucille lmao 🤣 school just doesn’t prepare you for real life like this .
Beautiful Boat, what make an model is it. Where might I find one for sale?
+Garell York It's a 21 or 22 ft Tripp.
That is our 22' Tripp Angler, which is a classic New England work skiff, built at the FL Tripp boat yard, in Westport, Mass. They are extremely rugged, strong little boats that can go out in just about anything, and while you might get a little wet while you're at it......you will be able to get back home....!
I think he said worried about the boat sliding off the rear stands, why not put a strap from one to the other
That's how I was taught to do it.
Why not use YARD ARM boat jacks. Great jacks designed for this vary purpose.
Beware of the "high jacks"!!!! lol
I have a catalina 250 with a centerboard.. Do u apply same operation to get it off its trailer?
Gerardo Ortiz Yes, basically but quite often years ago we used wooden pop-its.
Is there a size of boat where you can't apply this method? Can hulls always bear their weight lengthwise to the rear?
//edit keel is the word I was looking for :P Can you generally expect a keel to be rigid enough for the whole boat to be lifted from one end or the other?
What make and model is this boat?
1972 FL Tripp Angler
Its Beautiful, that's what it is!
Me and my dad built those boats for F. L. Tripp
Lifting frame and hoist is far easier!
Do you know a solution for earthquake country?
Move.
by a strong wind the boat will blow away
Why not a long wood beam across the bow end Jack on both sides just pull it right out
I like that idea. Havent seen it done though
When the trailer first came out, I was mentally tiptoeing round the boat. Whispering, even. Hoping to God the dog was tied up.
l think that tree is to close to the boat.
Needed: at least 60'-80' of level ground, a friend who works for free and can follow directions without wrecking the program, 2 Jack stands at least 4'-8', 2 big bottle Jack's, lots of large wood blocks... Oh yeah, chains would finish it off.
I don't even own a boat.
I live in the middle of the desert and I don't either. Yet here I am, watching each of his videos...
lol! :D
I own 3 of them a lake boat, a sea boat, and a jet boat. Cheers from new zealand
Well....... it would be a lot cooler if you did
My insurance states i must Unhitch truck and roll out trailer by hand.
Not everyone has access to those stans an thoose timbas. 🤣
dose new england ozs new how to handle boots in da yodds
Did u learn this from your dad?
Nothing worse than watching your spotter not watch the spot you need watched.
his hand signals are not good for driver
This looks so incredibly dangerous.
Looks moody ...bet it could so easily blow over
hire a damn crane
four wut
grow up
SP mQQse Crane? You obviously don't know what you're doing.
Your obviously a moron.
This whole video is bull
