EXACTLY!...and it always happened on a single ramp! The "proper boater" preps in the parking lot, unhooks the winch, backs in with a friend at the wheel or to catch it and get it out of the way, dumps the boat, and pulls out as quickly as possible.

I about had seizures when a guy would back down (after 5 attempts)....then he'd start to transfer everything and all his gals would lay out the towels and start to put on lotion. When a ramp on a busy river has a half dozen boats waiting in line....GIT-'ER-DUN!

I've seen "normally intelligent people" turn into complete morons when a boat is involved. I'm sure you've seen the same.
