    Default done it both ways

    Went down to far on the ramp and the rear axle of trailer droped over the end of ramps concrete slab , had to jump in and dive under trailer with a rope then two of us pulled trailer up with the rope while having one of the onlookers drive the truck forward any way got the trailer free I dried off put back on my clothes went fishing October water is cold
    ( a 300 lbs man who has just taken off all his clothes in October at a boat ramp draws quite a crowd )

    Unhappy In the starting gate.

    Before I attempt to launch my boat I need some clarity. Were you at Catawba State Park and if so when? There are 4 ramps and I try to use the one to the east, that's the one to the left as you are facing the ramps. I never had problems all last spring but that was last spring and this is this spring and things do have a way of changing and not always for the better. I'm anxious to hear from any of you after you have ventured out from Catawba. I will report as soon as I get back from my first trip. Hopefully it will be this weekend. Right now I'm going to check my boat coverage with State Farm.

    OMG I did the same thing last August at the Vermilion ramp. Dove down grabbed the back of the trailer and dead lifted the trailer while my wife drove the truck forward until the wheels got back on the ramp. Went fishing and filled the cooler.
