Loving some of the comments - I cant believe how worked up some people get lol

[teamvmg]

the tide do go out round these parts, don't it?

[pozzer1981]

@teamvmg Yes the area is massively tidal - 10m tidal range on spring tides, this footage was taken at an hour after low water.... recovery is much easier with another 8-10m of water over the slip.

4 people tried this and sunk their boats.

I would have liked this video if the water had of flooded in and sunk the boat.

I agree with the kid, that was awesome! lol

@noodlesaudigolf Most I've seen in the U.S. (where I live) have rollers of some sort. Mine has 4 down the middle and carpeted side rails with about 1/2 inch of clearance for the boat width.

@cocotower - Er with the winch!

Don't forget most modern UK trailers are what's called "roller coaster" trailers & they are designed to roll the boats up along the trailer. The one in the video and mine has got a rear swing beam as well to help loading.

In the US most trailers are the "bunked" style which require a trailer to be driven a long way into the water before you can put the boat on top. Each have got advantages and disadvantages but when it comes to roller coaster - "its what we got!"

@noodlesaudigolf And how did you get the boat back on the trailer, genius?

[noodlesaudigolf]

Been there and done it exactly the same way no problems!
