If the guy in silver truck was sober he needs to start drinking.

There should be a separate trailer test required on your driver's license, not to mention a certificate of competence for boat operation.

Once you pull out, get away from the boat launch. Prep your boat before launch, and clean up or tidy your boat away from the launch.

There are some people who should just stay on dry land and NEVER buy a boat. These are the same people who will end up on a reef, sand bar or rocks.

This silver truck is comedy gold!

The blue and white I/O needs to pre prep his boat at home . The only thing I have to do when I pull up is the two rear straps and the winch . And if there is a line , I will take those off while waiting and get my bow line ready. I usually am by myself so I have a long bow line that I secure to my hitch , back down bump the brakes boat slides off then pull up slightly jump out secure boat out of way of launch ramp and go park. On a busy day a few inconsiderate people call cause a lot of delay and flaring tempers.

After boating for around 50 years, it seems that boating knowledge, including trailer backing is becoming a lost art. Between being subjected this during the launching and recovery, unless you have a really great time in the boat, it’s just not worth it anymore. Especially at my age now, I just don’t have the patience. I will still try and help if I can, but a lot think they know what they’re doing and don’t appreciate the gesture, or they’re drunk.🥴

Lol! Brothers and boats !😂

What in the world is really going on!! When u thought you seen it all at the boat ramp but apparently not this is crazy.😂😂

The big boat and black truck family needs some lessons on boat ramp etiquette. Seriously!

The first amateur actually finally got lucky. Pure luck to get it in at all

I have a Nortech 392 Superfish. 39 ft without joking i never took more than 3 minutes unless the ramps were over run with people!!!

To reverse a car with a trailer attached only use your mirrors and if the trailer swings to the right .... Right hand down on the steering wheel and naturally opposite with the trailer swinging to the left .... left hand down.

say mojo be havin' a hard time wiff dat backin' up ! lawd lawd , need mo practive for sho !

The lesson here is to PRACTICE backing up BEFORE you get to the boat ramp !

It is funny to watching them back up but they should go a empty parking lot to practice

I wonder how much money I would make if I put a sign out at the boat ramp "$20 to have a professional driver back your boat in."

damn lake gonna dry up before this fool gets to the ramp.... geez

I wish our ramps had them big red topped poles to mark the ramps. That would make things way easier. Except for these people.

My goodness me. Someone needs to learn which way to turn the steering wheel 😂

The best boat ramp video I ever saw, was the guy that launched and took off in the boat and left the trailer and truck at the ramp.😲

If I had planned to get in that boat that couldn’t backup, I would change my plans. Oh my. 😎

So why exactly did the other boat on the trailer just sit in the lot? Load and tidy everything away from the ramp. and the bozo backing up 1,0000 times? Walk over and tell the other guy to move. Some people need to NOT try to fake it until they make it.

Wish they would get out of there. I want to take my boat down to the ramp and work on it.

I’m getting Peter Griffin vibes 😂

Exactly why I launch at 7:30 and retrieve by 11 when going to Blythe.

People who block the boat ramps are the worst people on the planet! No consideration. The other family trying to back in was extremely patient.

There are just way too many people who don't have a clue to know how to back up and launch a boat. They never think to go to some big empty parking lot to practice on how to back up the correct way when being at a boat ramp. Instead they choose to take up everyone else's time. It's that all they think about is me me me. That's all I had to say.

Highly protected species

Whenever I pulled up to the ramp, it usually took me no longer that two minutes to have my boat in the water and my truck/trailer removed.

I'm more than pretty sure that that trailer isn't sized correctly for that boat.

I am truly amazed how many people have no freaking clue about backing up with a trailer. Unbelievable!

Hope plug is in

Growing up as a kid we learned how to operate small boats, trailers, learning your way up to a larger boat & trailer; These days people with no boating experience starting out with large boats & trailers while making themselves look lost. I heard a guy ask one time at a marina if the newer boats [ which he had ] still had drainplugs but then again it does make for good videos right. lol

At 12:50; add to launch checklist, "stow anchor". ;-)

This video gave me major angst

Was there a gas leak in the area? Some reason that so many non-drivers are at this ramp?

Is this in Florida ? I enjoy your videos ! Never seen so many Gilligans in one spot !

It would help a lot if the pick-up trucks would lower their tailgates so they could see the trailer better especially when backing an empty trailer up. Don't use your mirrors either. Turn around and look where you are going.

amazing

I agree with other comments. There should be a test on trailers with your drivers license before you can use a trailer.

Backing a trailer is easy once you know the secret. Put your hand at the BOTTOM of the steering wheel. If you want the back of the trailer to move left, move your hand to the left & vica versa

Ha looks like someone else needs some backing practice 😅

Just because you can buy a boat doesnt mean you should.

Need a bigger parking lot! My husband drove semi and he tells me I need God and five acres to back up.

It hurts me to see people can't back a trailer up. I get practice makes perfect but it is always the ones with boats lol.

Yeahh!

Wow! Question! How many times does it take for this man to back up a trailer on the boat ramp? Answer! As many times as it takes! Unbelievable! LoL 😂

I would not like to be near these people in the water either. New boats new drivers. They should get a ticket 🎟

Omg some people should practice reversing a trailer in a big car park before attempting a boat ramp!

They just want others to know what an expensive boat they have. Most have zero idea what they're doing!!!!!!

Dude in the silver truck needs to stick to fishing from the bank

Put your hand at the bottom of your steering wheel and move your hand the way you want the trailer to go

They have the boat running is that save

Oops, someone forgot the Plug, We all do it Once !!! 😅

Why choose that ramp to begin with? He was lined up with the ramp straight behind him. 🤦‍♂️

They did not block the ramp 😂.. 5-6 lanes

Just drive in truck first problem solved. Omg

Why didn't they use the other ramp?

I wonder how many have a boat operator listens?

The way I saw was the big boat was there first and both ramps was empty on both sides the black guys cut him off

People go buy nice expensive boats and can't even back a utility trailer.

The bloke in the grey truck needs to be told to hold the bottom of the steering wheel to make the trailer go in the direction you move the wheel. He could easily have launched behind the loiterers 3 times, and chickened out each time. I'll bet he had a big red face....

This guy needs to practice backing up... Lol

Finally………🤣😂🤪

Can't back in May as well go home

Can't handle the level of not capable

Just a friendly suggestion...maybe get a tripod so ur camera is a lil more stable.

Glad he didn’t have a dead battery an needed a jump

Sombody was taking some Extra Strength Stupid Pills 😂

They came back because they probably forgot to put the plug in :)

People like to complicate things

I didnt see a problem with throwing the bone in the water...?

Most of the people, their line of credit is much bigger then their brain.

Laughing HARD here.

Anyone else see the Thought Bubble over everyone's head? "IQ87" "IQ91" "IQ84"......

so what if the blocked ,everybody is a rookie at some point in there life

That guy with the big boat is a true ass.I don't know where u r filming at but in La. he would have a big problem blocking the ramp like he did .A BIG problem.

Boneheads at the boat ramp !

I grew up launching boats & fishing alone in S. Louisiana near Lake Charles. Ya got all kinds of fishing down there but the key to good fishing is having the boat on the water. Some of these Kats are bad news & it's not a learning problem. Anyone can learn to back up ~ getting everything out of the car & in the boat isn't done while you stop all the boat traffic at the ramp! One group not only tied up the a launch but blocked other cars from going across the top of the Ramp to get to other launch slots. Bad manners or dumb? IDKnow what it is but common sense says you have your sH!T in the boat & you back in. But you can't count on much common sense out there so don't go falling in the water?

Big boat-blue / white needs flager as they cannot see.

An 8 year old could back up better then that guy!!

Non backer uppers

Hi, u need to zoom out more, like to see all the docks and ramps please 👍

I think there may be drugs involved how could any one be so ut of it ….

If you can’t back a trailer any better then that you shouldn’t own a boat

I hope he sinks the boat and truck so he wont have to do this again.

They should not own a boat

Way too much steerin,lock to lock. Needs lessons

Launching a boat for me and my wife is like sex. I can be in and out in under a min.

Where is this? Everybody black!

Why did they have to have that ramp??? So ignorant. He was lined up better with the ramp on left. Guess just to be an a$$

I swear all boat ramps are designed for failure and mishaps

Very selfish

He had it the first time

Hi

If your going to buy a boat, first make sure it's not to big for your vehicle. Second, go to a parking lot and learn how to back the damded thing before you try it at the ramp.

Painful to watch
