Now that ive seen this vid im going to power it on evrytime 4rm now on!!!!!

Power-loading? No thanks. I call it courtesy to my fellow boaters. I boat on the ocean so at the ramp I use power-loading roils up the water and bottom silt pretty good and pushes any debris to the same area. At low tide this area becomes a problem. It's busy and there's almost always someone behind me or waiting their turn. It only takes a minute or two to hook it and crank it on.

Been power loading for years. Don't see anything wrong with it. It's a lot easier and faster.

No power loading, please, just use the rope like sailors have been doing for 5000 years. why make noise , tear up the bottom, cavatate your propeller and a hundred different things.

@LONElYxISlAND Not if the ramp is built properly. The people who use a rope to load tie up the boat ramp needlessly.

[LONElYxISlAND]

powerloading is easier but it does hurt the lake bottom and can eventually wreck the ramp i just use a rope and have no problems

[NIGHTRIDER995]

@rdwafer75 fuk it everywhere i go i powerload mine,i aint getting wet unless i have to

[olebiker]

@rdwafer75

Power loading is SOP everywhere I have ever been in the US. I understand that a few Northern states don't allow it, though.

[100DREAMAKER]

I have no idea where these jerks say that it is illegal to power on the boat to the trailer.... it IS the preferred method! If you can't do it then you need to get rid of the boat!

[rdwafer75]

Damn Brits, you can't power load here in the US! LOL

[mathproable]
