Reply to: launching cat from boat ramp

[quote=halliske]We are forgetting that once the boat is in the water we should have pre-planed what is next for the boat. Sometimes there is a sand beach close by.. In that case is is a breeze to set the sails there on solid ground.. Especially if you can walk the boat to the beach on a line. If is quite a ways to the day spot, I often only raise the jib.. It would take quite a gust to tip the boat with a un-tacked jib.. Also, dont take the tie down straps off till you are in the water. Get some that are secure but easy to un-do. For your confidence sake, take some cones to a empty parking lot with the boat in tow.. Practice backing and learn to use your mirrors. Not looking over your shoulder..Work on backing into a stall.. and.. Be sure the truck or car has good mirrors !! Ditto on the spotter.. 4 eyes are better than 2..[/quote]
