Re: Boat retrieve solo
Hi Richep<br /><br />Have you tried this? On my boat I have cleats either side right at the stern, and open cleats at the bows. When I'm coming back in, I run a big loop of light line from both stern cleats, feeding it through the twin bow cleats, and on up to the vehicle.<br /><br />With this, I can easily haul the boat onto the trailer and - here's the best bit - 'steer' the stern to get it central by pulling more on one side or the other of the line, while guiding the bows into the block with the same line, while hooking on the winch.<br /><br />Still get my feet wet sometimes, but that's not a problem. I still wash behind my ears too, like momma told me, so I'm used to water. The main plus is, it's easy to get the boat centralised - spot on every time.
