Years ago, trailers were built narrower.
Narrow frames sitting on top of narrow axles, meant that the boat sat up on top, very high in the air, often over 24" above the ground.
Modern trailers are wider and the boat sits lower, maybe 12-14" above the ground.
Easier to float the boat on/off the trailer.
So tilt trailers were made back then, because it was cheaper to make the tongue hinge, than to build a wider and lower trailer.
So, if the launch is shallow, try using the tilt feature to launch and load your boat.
